I bought some cheap plastic rivets off Amazon with the correct Nissan part number for the front splash guards but when they arrived they were the same length as the "standard" length plastic rivets.
Why did I buy 50 off Amazon when I only needed 2 OEM Nissan rivets? It was much cheaper.  |
This should go without saying, but yes, check the size before ordering. I ordered 2 sizes: the shorter and longer rivets, both of which were useful on my car.
Also, why buy only 2 when they will need to be replaced each time you pop them out? $.50 versus $5.00. I think I'll make the gamble and spend the $5.00 lol.
