Default Locating the little bits

This is going to seem rather silly, but does anyone know any good places where one can find those push-pin trim mounts for holding interior panels to the car? Most of the panels in my car are held on by only one or two of those silly things and I'm trying to clean it all up, however I have no idea where I can look for those trim plugs. Ebay has turned up empty.

If you are speaking of your Talon. I would check your local Mitsubishi dealer. Although that route will probably be the most expensive.

Those things are a PITA, aren't they?

Those push-clips are universal. You should be able to find them at Lordco, or any other auto parts store. They're cheap too.

Yeah they are. My Talon is missing so many of them it's terrible. The panels in the rear half of the car are all missing at least two of them, some of them are only held on by one or two of them. When the car was running they rattled like crazy and they look terribly tacky just hanging there.
