Greetings,

Well, after a few days research I just wanted to post what I found. You know those plastic push pieces that hold on various items (head liners, trim, panels) they are called various things.

I found them called Nylon Fasteners, Nylon Retainer Clips, Christmas Tree Fasteners, and other descriptions.

I came across the following link in EBAY and purchased the item, so wanted to share in case others are looking for similar clips.

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/_Automotive...p3756.m14.l1318

The price might be a tad high but considering that you get multiple sizes, and that they are approx $5 per package at Auto Zone for just one size, this seemed to be the most cost effective and versatile solution.

Again, I didn't find anything in the forum on this when I looked earlier, so thought I would post it.

Additionally, these other websites helped

Thanks
Gary

Great Find

Yeah, this is a Repost, however the previous post only had a link to e-bay bid, and it's probably expired by now. Plus, your other two links are HIGHLY valuable! Good Job! thumbsup.gif

A repost eh?

I searched and searched but couldn't find anything on this in the forums.
(I'm trying to be a good newbie and not repeat what's been done already).

Here's a link to the seller's ebay store...this shouldn't expire as long as the seller stays in business.

I think my "search" issue was that I (and nobody else me thinks) didn't know what to call the darn things.

"Poppers", "Nylon Fasteners", "Nylon Rivets", "Christmas Tree Fasteners", "Shield Retainers"......
I searched and searched but nothing came up ...mostly cuz I didn't know what to call them.

Anyways, whatever works best so others can find this info.
