they're not really screw... they're little cap push screw/bolts....

anyhow i messed 2 up by having stupid friend step on it while i was installing my hid... anyhow dealer quoted me 7.30 ish each... WTH man.. they aren't worth that much.. can someone show me a better deal

 

Dude Personally I Took Them Off! Lol I Hate Taking Them Off Every Time I Want To Do Something! So I Just Leave The Covers On There With No Clips! But Neways! When I Took My Car For My First Service, My Clips Werent On, And They Just Placed New Clips On!..* So Next Time You Take If For Service They Will Put New Ones On!..* Well I Hope So..

 

$7.30 each?
If dealer they tag $7.30 ea, I think it is a nice deal already since there might be some shipping charge you need to pay for our peeps here to get them for you...

 

damn... come on.. someone tell me that they have the same screw at toyota for 75 cents each

 

TAKE IT IN WHEN YOU NEED SERVICE! trust!

 

i bought mine at lexus for like 1.50 each. and they changed the design. yeah i bet they're the same at toyota. just shop around. $7 is crazy. anything over $2 is probably too much.

 

What?!? I got mine from the dealer, but I didn't pay that, nor would I. The clips are Lexus part # 90467-07211, and cost $1.74 each. They've changed the clips, though - these fill out the hole better and don't break NEARLY as easily. However, they are unfortunately a bit more difficult to take out than the original clips. To take these out, you have to work your fingernail into the center lip of the button, instead of just pressing the small head all the way down like on the original clips. Anyway, I like the new ones WAY better than the old ones...

Yea They Replaced Mine With The New Ones!. But I Took Them Off Again Lol

 

Why Are You Talking Like This and nOT tALKING lIKE tHIS????

 

The Thread Says "Engine Cover Screws" Not Font & Caps Flaming

 

haha why does it matter if the first letters are CAPS? anyway, i thought the newer ones were easier to remove. theres just a circle in the middle that you push down slightly andthen you can just pull it off as with the older ones. the thing with the new ones is that it's harder to push it back in when you want to put the cover screw back on.

 

They've been through about a dozen different designs in the last 15 years. I agree with jsquared, these new ones are a PITA to put back in because the center pin is hard to release.

I bet they have an engineering student design contest for these things...that's why they're always changing them.
