I can't find the BITOG thread that mentioned the size needed for best fit. Anyone know?
Plastic and skid plate would seem to be an oxymoron.
Yes, it's really a shield for aerodynamics and to keep things clean under there. A skid plate it is not.
I'm curious why or if Hyundai used this kind of fastener. Every vehicle I've seen lately uses the nylon push-pull fasteners or small screws or both. A pic would be helpful here.
We are getting off-track. I don't want fasteners. I want the size of the EZ Anchor. I am not going to buy any more fasteners for the plastic cover.
Hopefully someone will chime-in. It might be a plastic one inch / #8 anchor with the Philips screwdriver head. Not sure until I see them live on the shelf. I think they come in a 4-pk, which is perfect. Don't want to invest more money, not until I find out if it works. I'll head over to the hardware in the morning.
