Getting the Wheeling Fever
Hi Folks -

Removed the interior trim in preparation for Dynamat and new carpet. Does anyone have a source for those wonderful little plastic button fasteners? Most of mine have turned to light blue chalk and disintegrated.

Any pointers are much appreciated!

John

They are available in black, mostly. I'd look for the "HELP" line through Auto Zombie, O'Reilly, NAPA and the like.

There may be other sources, but there will be additional search time.

Thanks, Ryan - I went there, too. Helpful for a number of things, but still doesn't have the exact bit I'm seeking. They look like this:

Thanks for the tips on fasteners - I think I found something that will work. The weekend is almost over and I'm close to finishing...

Sound deadener in and new padding on top...

Rear carpet in, but not glued or screwed yet... that'll be my afternoon.
