In assembling my doors, and gathering up parts to do so, I've discovered that when I purchased my 'disassembled' Nomad, I am missing a few more small parts:

1) door lock retainers - I have one and need another...

2) the plastic 'washers' which protect the door panels from the window cranks and handles. I have one and need 5 more...

3) The *springs' which go behind the window cranks and door handles (behind the door panels). I need all 6 ..

These parts are available reproduction, but I dislike reproduction parts and prefer to *restore* original parts. If you have some of these parts and would be willing to part with them. Let me know. by PM (Notification), or via email:
gdwylie@knology.net

Thanks,

Pretty sure I can help with the needed "springs" . Will check the meager parts stash I have for tri-fives and get back with you via a PM.

SMALL parts for doors.. :) and I can't edit the subject line!~ No idea why my fingers went wild typing that one, or how my brain missed seeing it.. :)

I don't think any of these trifive parts are that 'smart'.... :)

Several of you responded that you believed you had the small parts I needed and was missing for my door assembly, and I thank you all!~ .. but I received the parts I was missing today in a 'gift box' from one of my trifive friends.. :)

I will be restoring these parts for use on my car, knowing when ready they will FIT and FUNCTION as designed; which is much better than trying to figure out what is wrong and how to fix 'reproduction parts'... :)

Gary, glad you found the needed parts. Nothing fits as well and works like original GM parts for sure.
