Plastic Engine Bay Pop Screws?

[KiwiJoe]

I noticed a couple of the little plastic pop screws under the hood that hold down the plastic engine, battery etc. cover in my BL5\'s engine bay are broken (they look like they get pretty brittle, and seem generally pretty rubbish quality).

Anywhere I can get replacements other than going to a Subaru dealer and bending over? Repco or Autocheap maybe? Anyone seen a suitable replacement or source?

i know in christchurch i went down to submarine spares and talked to shae, they have a box out the back with heaps of them in there. I was missing about 5 when i got my car and went down and got some more. not expensive at all. Its on Brougham st near the AA Centre

I got genuine bumper clips for v5 the other day $2 something each. Obviously at trade price but being the right part they fit perfectly.

Nice, thanks for the help! Looks like the part number I want is 59122FA010 with Phillips head release, and this clip is used all over the place in lots of subby models from a ~2000 to around 2009. Will to pop around to submarine next week.

If you have a sample one , you can also try RJ Paterson trade store in Tuam St. they have heaps of them.

Do you remember how much you got them for dacerx? I bought a couple from winger a while back for between $2-3 each. Ridiculous.

i got like 10 from there random box for like 4 dollars, they have just heaps from lots of subarus in it so u have to search for awhile for the ones that you need but only took me a few minutes. Just go in and talk to shae she can help you out, other thing to do it to search around in there wreaked cars i found a few in there but then the rest in the box they have. i needed both the philips head ones and then round pop top ones

Champion do hang sell packs also but dont think theyre real cheap. Rather than drive all over the place hunting through boxes at panelbeaters/wreckers to maybe find one that works Id just buy genuine lol. Probably save you money in the long run and theyre not perished like the ones youre replacing.

i went to one place and found all that was needed
