grille question....
 
The 4 grille mounting grommet nylon nuts... Where did you guys/gals buy them? I am drawing a blank. took the grille out to clean behind, they all broke and this is a mess..... Nobody stocks them, nothing local fits or works. Ebay sends from China. AUVECO stuff work? GM?

What year Grille are you talking about? Can you post a pic? Classic Parts has a lot of Grille parts, and Clips and Fasteners. But not knowing exactly what it is your needing, it’s hard to say where to look.

Got them, have enough forever now. That was so irritating to look for and not find.

Probably Clips & Fasteners, they pretty much sell in bulk. I’m like that too, with several clips or bolts. I could only find them there, but you gotta buy a box of 50-100, lol.

I love that company. You do buy in bulk but their box price is generally close to what the big box auto part stores charge for a pack of 5.

Classic Parts of America has them, three different styles depending on the year of your truck.

Yep you are correct. Some of the stuff I do buy from them, I need the bulk, so I’m happy.

Thanks for the replies everyone,,, I was able to buy a box at a local auto body/parts store.... So... I have 46 extras if anyone out there needs some.... AuVeCo bought out another manufacturer and they had a box on the shelf. Lot of calling around but they fit perfectly on the core support.
