Default Push Fasteners

Does anyone know of replacement fasteners for the shroud in engine compartment? I damaged some getting the shroud off and would like to replace them with something better. My horns now sound like a real car but my shroud is jitterbugging.

Look at Toyota Parts Cheap - Genuine OEM

They seem to be in the collision catalog, radiator, splash shield part. But, it's hard to tell from the drawings.

Let me know if you find them.

I agree about finding something better. I have not broken any of my clips, but they are quite loose, some are pretty much held in place by gravity. I'll figure out something and post what I find here.

Couldn't find them in the catalog-I think I'll check the hardware section of some local stores.

I would love to get something for mine too. The ones I have on the engine cowling cover are loose as can be. No tightening at all.

Wow that's a cool site. Very easy to use.

For fear of hijacking the thread, let me ask you this: I backed into something that ripped the black trim off the bottom of the the bumper cover. Upon inspection, the black trim seems to be completely intact, but three fasteners were apparently ripped out and are now lost. Am I correct that I need to order part number 15 in the following illustration?

Tony, I think those are the same things we are all complaining about and yes it seems the same.

I'd say numbers 3, 15, and 18. But, like I said, really hard to tell from the drawing.
