I would think you could easily get that at the dealer or maybe even at you local PepBoys or similar in their "HELP SECTION" ... it is a common piece used by many manufacturers ... the only problem I see if maybe finding the "right" color ... good luck!!

Soory ... mis understood your question ... if it is just the color you are mainly concerned with then I would suspect the dealer would be your best bet for a close match ... maybe a junk yard?

The christmas tree things<--- you mean my counter?

Junk yard or dealer seems to be my best bet yet. To late to go to either one tonight...damn.

OIC!!!
I can see why you call them that. There is no sure fire way to remove them but to yank and hope for the best.

One came out just fine, the other snaped the head right off as you can see.

I thought about that but what kind of glue would be strong enough for that?

You could buy the generic one from your local Autozone and paint it to a similar color. Do both so they match.

They have to be exact or it will bug me to death.

They are 33 cents apiece at the dealer, hardly overpriced. Not everything at the dealer is expensive.
I got at the dealer:
Fog light switch = $15
headlight retainer ring (revised edition) = $9
headliner fastener = 33 cents

I havent picked it up yet, gotta go today.
