Can anybody tell me what the fasteners are called thae hold the top most rear grill on a 993? The grill has plastic posts that protrude and there are slit sheet metal fasteners that push on but do not come back off.

I've searched but I can't for the life of me find the name of these things.

Assistance would be greatly appreciated!

TIA

Paul- I believe they are Clamping Washers #17 in above pic.

If it looks like this, VAG/Porsche call it clamping washer as Nam mentioned:



Amazon sells these as well.

Mike- not sure if it matters, but I think it looks more like in this pic. Curious what Porsche charges for these compared to $8 for 8 pieces on Amazon.

Looks like a common type of push-on speed nut. A compatible variation Can most likely be gotten at any auto parts store. The common ones are similar in form:

#5 is the 4.5mm
I think you'd want #17 its 5.0mm according to the Katalog.

Like pp000830 said, auto parts and hardware stores should have similar items in their Dorman nuts, bolts and fastener drawers.

Actually fellas it's the nomenclature that I was after (clamping washer) and not so much that specific clamping washer.

Thank you again for everyone's help!
