Trying to find plastic rivets used under the hood

[Buellsox]

Weird….those are the same ones I used. Yes the head is dimensionally smaller when viewed from the top, but they squeezed the panel to the sheet metal with no issues for me. I just opened up the drop in piece a bit before setting into the sheet metal and they squished in behind the panel & metal just fine. Yours look super thin. Can you open them up a bit.
I can say - the top doesn’t match perfectly, but I figured I’m the only one under my hood and I’m the idiot that lost the clip in the first place so….lesson learned.

Fair enough, and thanks. Yea I noticed some holes are different depths / sizes than others so it may vary a bit (e.g. the eBay ones work for some but not the ones I tried?). Anyway, trying the other guy's suggestion. Thanks again everyone

unsure if part # is single or multiple push pins

My radiator cover has both of those size fasteners. Unknowingly, I removed all and stuck in my hoodie pocket. Once I went to reinstall, some seemed loose and discovered some short and some long versions. Never really figured out where the short/long fasteners were originally placed.

I know this does not answer your questions, but if you are stumped by eBay check out this thread: Grill Retainer Rivet Thread. These worked for me.

You sir, are a hero among men. These work perfectly (both functionally and visually). Can finally be done with my quest

Thanks again!

Good to hear that my endless hours of seeking near perfection (ocd) is helping others.
