Clips for skid plate door?

[moneypit]

I need new clips, mine are shot/gone-they go on the larger skid plate... I called the dealer which called them nuts?? and wanted $8-$9 for them?

Mine doesn't even have the door anymore (previous owner lost it). If the nuts are still on my plastic plate I wouldn't mind just sending them to you as I have no need of them.

You need metric J-nuts. Check the fastener section of your local home improvement or hardware store.

Thanks Roadie, that's a good idea! How bout how to affix bolt to cover without falling out..? wonder if I could get 1 of those "push on washers" to work? maybe with a shouldered bolt and then even file a groove for washer to set into...or am I getting to anal haha. If GM just sold the stupid clips for .10 life would be easy! It's just like a brake shoe pin.
