Stacy, those are simply called window regulator attachment clips. They attach the glass to the regulator assembly.

Take a look at the pic below. If that is the part you are referring to, you can find them online or even eBay. They are cheap. Simply look up window regulator repair clips and it should bring it up for you.


Let me know if I can help in any way.

Take care,
Joe
