Easiest way to obtain this side cover grommet?
Is Partzilla legit for ordering parts? How long do they take? Is this something a local dealer might stock for less than $8?
Part 92075 here: http://www.partzilla.com/parts/searc...VER/parts.html Linked at the bottom of that page for $1.96, but $5.95 for shipping! http://www.partzilla.com/parts/detai...2075-1067.html edit: Hah, they charge less than half s/h thru their ebay storefront. But it would be nice to buy local.

Partzilla has been good for me, but only if you're actually ordering a decent amount of stuff to justify the shipping cost. When I only need one small bolt or a grommet like that, I'll just go to the dealership. Partzilla is showing the list price of ~$3.

Check local parts house. The "help" section usually has assorted grommets and stuff.

I've picked up a few at the local hardware store. Just need the inside and outside diameters, so I'd take the lower one in to measure.
The one's I found were in the aisles with the nuts and bolts.

If you still have a lug to push onto the grommet you are doing better than many pregen owners

Good content I'm in the same boat I was very surprised when I popped my side covers off to find all the **** (I'm assuming that is what they are called that is what they are called in a few owners manuals I've seen)

I am stumped on the censored word for once. Actually, that was my best guess below. At least they don't censor bung, shitake mushrooms, balls, bloody, flange, or knob.

Just ordered from partzilla via ebay for $4.55 total. Two weekends went by, and I never got myself down to the parts store. Should have ordered online weeks ago!!!
