Cap Screws for Skid Plate

[OdinCharles]

I have a 2016 Hyundai Genesis 3.8 AWD sedan. My front skid plate came somewhat loose at the front passenger corner several days after my last oil change. That is when I decided I would preform all future oil changes on my own.

My primary question is regarding the cap screws and plastic bumper push fasteners (?) required to hold the skid plate in place. I have seen some posts on these items, but the information seems conflicting or perhaps not for the G2 version of the Genesis sedan.

Could anyone supply part numbers and / or links to where I can get these items. I also understand that perhaps stainless steel or something similar would be advisable for the cap screws to prevent rust and permanent seating.

Lastly, if anyone has any "gotchas" they have learned doing the oil change, I would be interested in hearing them.

Thanks in advance for any help you could provide me.

Unless something very special about the cap screws, just go up to your local Ace Hardware and get the screws you need. My local Ace has all sorts of specialty fasteners, standard and metric including some push type automotive fasteners. Harbor Freight and Amazon both carry some universal plastic push style fastener kits that have lots of different styles for not much money. Comes in handy for future uses too for those damn plastic clip and push fasteners break easily.

Thanks Pulsar. I think that could work for the plastic push fasteners. But i believe the metal cap screws have specific dimensions ( thread type, depth, and width).

Harbor Freight definitely. You can buy a case of them, varying sizes, for $10. Mine even came with a metal puller.
