Default Engine cover screws

Hi CL,
I am looking to see if anyone knows the name or/and where I could get the screws for the engine cover. I am not talking about the clips but the screws on the side of the side piece of the covers. There are two of them.

Thank you!

I'm not sure exactly what you are talking about, but if all you are buying are one or two small inexpensive items like screws and clips, they are probably best purchased at your dealership's parts department. Shipping costs would likely wipe out any cost savings from buying them online.

I believe he is referring to the two plastic screws on the side of the engine covers. Personally, I wouldn't worry about those, they're not really that strong, what keeps the covers in place is the clips. Your best bet is to get them directly at the dealership however, I have a feeling that they won't sell them by themselves, they'll most likely only sell them with the entire engine cover

Cheers.

Toyota dealer is an alternative if more convenient.

Pix of the area of the screw is worth more than 1000 worlds.
