Where to buy plastic screw rivets

Post by Millhouse »

I'm looking for a supplier (in Dubai) of plastic screw rivets - the type that hold the various plastic panels on a car. I need 4.

Cheers, Scott

Hi Melhouse,

I'm not sure that this should be posted in the projects section. Anway, you should usually find it in the shops that sell normal screws. :)

I'm not from Dubai, so I cannot give you a specific shop .. sorry ! :(

Thanks everyone.

The hunt somewhat continues - I had forgotten about speedex. I'm still amazed that dragonmart drew a blank.

I've bodged something for the weekend but will check out the options... including popping over to a work shop and scrounging some.

actually, your mitsubishi service shop should be the best place...

i'm sure they might give you a few.

last time i had my tires changed, i asked if i could buy a spare valve... I ended with 5 for free.
