The tiny circlip that goes on to the small shaft poking through the tailgate trim underneath the exterior handle has gone missing and my tailgate will not open. The same thing happened about a year ago but that time the clip was sitting inside the housing and I was able to refit it.
The local Fiat dealer is telling me it is not available as a part and he cannot supply a circlip.

I have tried quite a few local garages hoping one would have a circlip assorment but no luck there.

Can anyone tell me where I can get one (or more) of these clips. None of the breakers around have a weekend in at the moment so that avenue won't work either.
 
I am assuming you mean this kind of clip.
I think it is called the C-clip, but I rarely see them at stores.

This type of clip should be easy to find as it is more common.
You need pliers to install it, but it locks more securely than the c-clip.
 
Scrapyard?

Maybe bravas and bravos share c clips as well.
