Will this fit my Kia or Hyundai?
This retainer is confirmed to fit the 2020–2022 Kia Soul, 2022–2026 Kia Carnival, and 2024–2026 Hyundai Santa Fe. It is the same clip included in Precision's PCK-5657-22 panel clip kit for those vehicles.
What does a cowl retainer do?
Cowl retainers secure the cowl panel — the trim piece at the base of the windshield — along with side moulding and panel trim. They are commonly lost or broken during windshield replacements or under-hood service work. Replacing them restores a proper fit and prevents panel rattles.
Are these OEM-specification parts?
Yes — Precision part 3042 is manufactured to OEM specifications and is a direct replacement for the original factory retainer. Nylon construction matches the material and retention force of the original clips.
How many clips do I need?
The number of retainers required varies by vehicle and repair scope. If you're replacing all cowl and moulding clips across a full panel, the 30-piece pack is a common starting point. The 15-piece pack works well for spot repairs, while the 60 and 90-piece packs are ideal for shops handling multiple vehicles.
Do you carry other Kia or Hyundai clip kits?
Yes — we carry Precision panel clip kits for a range of Kia and Hyundai models, including full windshield and cowl panel assortments. Contact us with your vehicle year, make, and model and we'll confirm the right kit or individual clips for your job.
