You mean small white zip ties?

Or do you really, really want it to look perfect? Because if so, you're going to have to buy new ones because the originals are all pretty much junk now (from sun damage and drying out).

I couldn't even FIND tan ones anymore the last time I looked. If I cared that much, I would have bought black ones (at $4.50 each! - there has to be a better source) and used plastic paint on them to match.

i am talking about the "snaps" that go around the sides of the hatch and hold the carpet.

Yeah....I know you are. I'm being sarcastic, but the point still stands: any used ones are beat, and I don't know where you'll even find tan anymore unless you can match them from another model car.

I have some unused ones. I may end up with some extras depending on how many I need when installing my new carpet.

If you can wait a couple weeks and I end up with extras, they're all yours.

Otherwise, buy the black ones and paint them.

I needed some of these for my car with gray interior, so I bought generic black ones and painted them gray, no one can tell the difference.
