Plastic push in rivet HELP!!

[Mladen5375]

While taking off the bottom engine splash cover, I broke a few of those plastic push in rivets. I went to three different auto stores and can't find these. Can anybody please tell me where I can buy these at?

Thank You

Did you try a Hyundai dealer parts department?

 

[homeofstone]

some larger Lowe's stores have a section of automotive fasteners. Other than a dealer I have no other suggestion.

I have tried looking online and on Hyundai's parts website but no luck. I wish I could at least somehow get the part number and find it that way.

That's a good point. There's actually a Lowe's store about a mile from my house, I should try that.

Do yourself a favour and order a bag of 50 or 100 for future use on the Genesis. If you want to by them at a parts store or dealership be prepared to pay at least a couple dollars each. This is the way to go. http://www.ebay.com/itm/120-X-8mm-C...ash=item3f714a9dec:g:2qIAAOSw5cNYTnHx&vxp=mtr

Avoid the dealer!!

Go to Ebay:

http://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_fro...X371222529360.TRS0&_nkw=371222529360&_sacat=0

Dealers can and will charge as much as $2 each.

Also, these are inherently lousy fasteners - so good practice is to replace all of them with new ones.

And, the cited ebay source ships quickly

They look exactly the same and work great.

I have bought these and the Hyundai ones from the dealer. These on Amazon have more of a matte finish to them but seem to work better on their first use. The Hyundai ones tend to still have that "pop" after using more than once. Hyundai ones are more expensive of course.

Be careful, The Amazon link above is $8.99 for only ONE CLIP!!! No where in the Description does it say for More than one....Somebody is making BIG MONEY on that one!

I usually buy a bag of 10 or 20 at NAPA Autoparts up here in the Great White North. They aren't expensive, just gotta find one that's the right size, doesn't even have to be identical realistically.

As mentioned go to e-bay and buy a bag of 50 and better yet 100. I did and got 10MM, 8MM, 7MM and 6MM so I'm covered on all my vehicles and there are different sizes in different locations. I now have a larger plastic compartmented storage box with all my "push pins" as a supply from now on.

IIRC 8MM is the most popular

Best deal is Ebay - see links above

And throw 'em away after one use

So, these clips must be removed to replace the engine filter?

On the G2 V8 - you have to remove a large front panel to access the oil filter. Remove five 10 mm cap screws & 11 plastic push pins -- They are not really clips - the pushpins are cheap little fasteners which should be discarded and replaced.

And, on the V8, that procedure is just for starters - a second centrally located panel has to be replaced to access the oil pan drain plug - the way to go on that one is to use the "Mercedes Method" I.E., suction the oil out with something like a Mity-Vac or the equivalent.

But -- If you are really a "No Genesis Yet" person -- then why Worry.

What about the engine air filters for the V8?

You have to remove the cross bars that cover them however this is very easy. Personally I went for the Wix filter which is identical in every way and may even have an advantage since it is slightly oiled.

Definitely got 15 or more in the box. IIRC these things are 2-4 a piece at the dealer. PN is 86155 2H100
