Apparently my bad experience with my sunroof is the gift that keeps on giving (Bad - KIA of Yuma TRASHED my Stinger)
In an effort to figure out why my headliner and B pillar are noisy, I discovered that not only where 2 of the 4 foam pieces free loose on my headliner, but I am also missing at least 2 of the black clips in front that hold it in place (I have not even checked if missing any from the side or rear)
Can someone help me find this part number
I have looked through the diagrams on the Kia parts sites and there is no mention of these clips, the only clips it lists (853993k500) is not the right part at all
Here is a pic of a back of the headliner with the clips in question circled:

here is some pictures I took of just the clips

For reference here is a pic of the 853993k500 clip that kia parts sites list (clearly not the right clip):

As a side note, I did figure out what was up with the B pillar trim.
Looks like Kia or that glass shop forced the B pillar out the wrong way, scraping the plastic mount tabs (part of the pillar, not removable). So I added some mounting tape and then wraped it with a couple layers of regular tape in order to add some thickness to it so it wont move as much.
