Oh man, if you can figure out how to keep those things in there, let me know. I got some new ones
from the dealer but the skirt is a little warped and they don't even come close to staying in. I'm talking about the screw-like plugs with the little drain holes in them that go underneath - the same thing you need, I think. Good luck!

I didn't try gluing them on. They're supposed to hold the plastic trim onto the frame, but
they don't grab into the frame hole well enough. I didn't want to glue them and make them permanent.
I'm less worried about the trim being held on than I am about water getting up in the holes that are supposed to be covered by the plugs. The plugs have little rear-directional drains in them that allow water to come out while helping prevent spray from the front.
I suppose I could glue them to the trim and that would help some, but that wouldn't do anything about attaching them to the frame.
I don't think they cost me $5-$8 each at the dealer though I don't remember how much they were. Geez, maybe they did and I didn't pay attention. Anyway, they're still in their little plastic baggie in my garage.
