Windshield Moulding Clips???

Windshield Moulding Clips???
Does anyone have pictures of these things? I've done some searching here and found this TSB. It sounds easy enough, so I was thinking of doing it myself, but I want to get a sense of what these things look like.
This is to fix the dash rattle I've been asking about lately. Hope others will find this useful too.

WINDSHIELD CREAKING NOISE WHILE DRIVING
PURPOSE
A creaking or rattling noise may be heard while driving, coming from the "A" pillar area, due to the windshield moulding clips vibrating against the glass. Eliminate the noise by installing a small piece of felt material on the side windshield moulding inner clips, as described in this bulletin.
AFFECTED VEHICLES
2002-05 Lancer
2003-05 Lancer Evolution
PROCEDURE
1.Test drive the vehicle to verify the noise is coming from the "A" pillar area.
2.Use a soft trim stick to remove the side windshield moulding from the cowl trim as shown.
Do not remove the cowl trim for this procedure.
3.Obtain adhesive-backed thin felt material from the BSR kit listed in the PARTS INFORMATION section of this bulletin.
Cut six felt pieces, approximately 70 mm X 5 mm.
4.Remove the liner from the back of the felt pieces. Affix the felt on the inner clips as shown.
Affix one felt piece to each of the three inner clips.
Repeat on the other side.
5.Be sure that the outer moulding clips (four on each side) are securely attached to the body retention stud as shown. If the clips are not properly attached, noise may result.
6.Reinstall the windshield side moulding.
7.Test drive to verify the noise is eliminated.
The part number for the felt kit is MB991752 (BSR Kit- Contains felt, tape, and urethane padding pieces)

Check out for the clips because you have different colours and they break easily. The best is when you put them back on the car, put some ''foam'' to stop the sound juste like the tsb state.

I know I'm bringing a thread back from the dead, but I need these plastic windshield moulding clips. I think they're yellow. Anyone have a diagram or a part number I can use? And are they the same for the Evo as for the regular Lancer? I assmue so.
