Best Place for Body Fasteners

I'm looking specifically for the nylon push retainers used to hold on the plastic inner fenders, among other things. Did you know they're impossible to get out with more than a 50% success rate?

I found em for $3 a pop on Northland Fasteners, but that seems a bit steep doesn't it?

Thanks guys,

-Levi

I'm pretty sure you can get them at autozone and just about any other parts store. I know i bought some bigger ones for another project.

Re: Best Place for Body Fasteners

Lowe's has them...pretty sure Home Depot does too. IIRC they're around 3-4 for $1.

Re: Best Place for Body Fasteners

Agreed...Autozone, Advance, NAPA...they all should have some sort of blister pack of a dozen give or take for way less than $3 a piece. I think I got my inner fender ones for about $10 for a pack or 2. If I don't remember what it was exactly, it was cheap :-p
