I need the 3 splash shield / guard fasteners...

...that fasten the guard to the air dam at the front end. I think they are the plastic capture / quick release pin type.

Does anyone have a part number and/or tip for where I can get these things?

Here's a photo of the fastener in question:

The problem with the fasteners at Autozone, are that without a part number, I have to use using trial and error to find the proper fastener. I've been thru a few so far with no luck...

I just bought something different to do that very same thing based on this parts drawing and listing from RealOEM.com

I bought a few of item #20 in the drawing.

$1.25 each at Pelican Parts.

Upon receiving them they appear to be identical to the existing screws holding my shield in place that are now getting rusty.
