Plastic push tabs
Anyone know where I can purchase those plastic push tabs that used to hold the plastic cover over the radiator support core? I removed the cover so I can run my HID harness underneath it, but those plastic tabs broke off so easily. I went to Toyota dealership and it cost over two bucks just for one. Freaking expensive. Thanks for any help!

Are you talking about those plastic "rivets" with the insert in the middle that you push in to expand and hold it in place? If so, take one with you to a motorcycle shop, and they should be able to match you up one from an ATV fender. That's what I do!

I'd just buy them from Toyota. You're gonna waste time and money looking for any other option. Gas ain't cheap and time, at least mine, is worth a lot.
Get the part number and search for the part online at partznet or Toyota of Dallas, you may be able to get them much cheaper than your local Toy dealer.

most other dealerships beside toyota quoted me pretty much same price, even a motorcycle dealer. Cheapest was Nissan, similar part, for 1.10 a piece. May just get that. Not sure I wanna zip ties like previous post, not trying to ghetto rigged my stuff.

Funny thing, we get all worked up paying $2 for a plastic part, and I agree it seems like it should be $.25.
But then we go out and pay $1300 for a bumper.
I am not putting anybody down, I feel the same way.

I checked several auto parts stores for these exact things. The stores had lots of different kinds but not even close to what I needed. Dealer had 'em.
