Best place to buy the smaller plastic pop-rivets? I also need a new set of wellnuts.

One of my plastic pop-rivets fell apart the last time I took my RH lower fairing off (to simply check/add coolant... so frustrating!). Do I have to order OEM for something so simple? I've seen the larger ones used to hold the two lower fairings together for sale at Cycle Gear and such but never the small thin kind (four total; two each hold the black shroud to either the LH or RH lower fairing in the front near the forks). If there's some place I can order them along with a set of affordable well-nuts (OEM price is ridiculous), then I can kill two birds with one stone.

Thanks.

Hmm... it doesn't look like they have the right size (seems very different) but I'll check the Kawi parts diagram and find out. Thanks.

Cheapest place for wellnuts that I have seen is http://www.racerpartswholesale.com/product/4646/
Can get twenty-five(25) of the M5's or twenty(20) M6's for about $6. Most other places charge a ridiculous price) for these things.

The last time I went to Cycle Gear, which was a week ago, they had all size plastic rivets and the well nuts as well. The well nuts that fit come in a windscreen package of 8 w/screws& washers. I used them on the fairings with the stock bolts also. They were the Motrax brand (Size M5)

The rivets were in a yellow/ white package http://www.boltmotorcyclehardware.co...678c3333203355
and some in black/ red package. Cycle Gear has a new store brand or distributor called BILT. The smaller rivets appear to be hot items.

I checked. They are getting rid of Motrax for some new brand (obviously the same) and all the good stuff was gone. $16 for a pack of the new brand (Speedshift or something like that) and I didn't see plastic pop rivets from them. I did find the BikeBolts and BILT stuff and bought a pack of hardware that was half-off $15 and included some pop rivets. They look pretty different but I think they'll work.
