  • need help with some parts...

    hey guys I went to the chevy dealership and bought some retainers I needed for various things on my 98 Camaro. Was wondering if anyone knew where I could get these cheaper as I spent 80$ on this crap.

    First part is the tiny little metal retainers that go on the inside of the front bumper to hold the grill on. There are 3 of these I need. I paid like 7 bucks a piece for them.

    I need 3 of the plastic retainers that hold the right rear trunk trim panel on, the one with the speaker in it. The slide into it on 3 spots and then push-pop in to the frame.

    I need the 3 pieces that go on the right rear trunk trim panel, the one that covers the spare tire the ones that can lock/unlock.

    And lastly i need 3 of the pop push in retainers for under the bumper cover on the front of the car. They are black and are also used for various other applications on these cars. They are a pretty universal part.

    I have checked with advanced auto parts, napa auto parts, lowes so far. None of them have them. They have retainers but not big enough or long enough to match any of these parts. I'd really like to find some cheaper. I could look on ebay I suppose but if anyone knows any actual businesses that carry these for cheap please let me know, or if you have any in new condition you want to get rid of PM me. Thanks

      If you spent 80 bucks why do you want to buy more. I bought the push in retainers for my bumper cover at dealer and it was like 3 bucks or something really cheap like that.

        Your missing my point, I want to buy them somewhere else cheaper (if possible) and return the ones I already paid for (they are still in their packages) if I can get them cheaper. If I can't find them cheaper I'll just suck it up and use em'.
