the plastic "rivets" that hold the cover for the tail gate

Seems my lock on the rear gate is falling threw so I have to remove that plastic piece to tighten it back up.  I tried the local autozone but they just point me to a hodgepodge of plastic rivets, screws, etc.

Any one ever change the rear plastic fasteners

Thanks

I was going to point you to the same "hodge podge" of plastic rivets at the AutoZone - quite seriously, there are rivets there that, whilst not identical, are close enough that they will fit and hold the interior plastics in place - I know because I've bought them from AutoZone.

If that doesn't suit you, there's always the dealer - they are available - for about $2 each.

Also, check auto body/paint stores. I've seen them on ebay. I got mine from Southwest Suzuki.

Check Ebay, Iv'e bought lots from there.  http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/NEW-Jaguar-Plastic-Screw-Rivets-20-/280618256323?pt=Motors_Car_Truck_Parts_Accessories&hash=item415626c7c3 these were 10.00 but there arelotsd that are cheaper.

I took mine off and it is still off. i figured i would have to put some diamond plate in there and rivet it to cover up the hole.

I got mine from a local place that does upholstery work and sells weatherstripping and plastic fasteners and all that good stuff.  I think I got a box of 15 for like 10 bucks.  They were not gray, they were black and a little larger diameter but they all still fit OK and they actually look a little beefier than the OEM gray ones.  I used 10 on the back hatch and the other 4 near the back seat belt posts.  Have one spare clip.  If I still had the box I'd be able to get you a part number and brand name, but sorry. 

Good info

Thanks
