Default Plastic Rivets Kit for G29

I have stripped down a G29 to do some cosmetic and mechanical work to a newly acquired golf cart for a Christmas gift to my kids.

I removed all of the plastic rivets with most of them breaking in the process. I did not think it would be difficult to pick up replacements so was not concerned at the time. I am struggling particularly with the Rocker Pannel rivet. I can find it from 3 to 5 bucks A PEICE with a 3-4 week lead time for most.

Are there any complete rivet kits I could purchase that have them all? XMas Tree, Blind rivets, etc... Is there an alternative Rivet that would have the same fit and function?

Attaching a picture so you see it is completely stripped.

Thanks.

Bummer, Yamaha pretty much sells nothing as a kit. Everything is sold individually. Here's a link to find the part numbers if you wanna search the web for better prices (enter part numbers in search engine & many sources will pop up).

I'm surprised they all broke on such a new cart. Yamaha makes they reuseable. Ive never seen any kits either

Look for a fabric/upholstery supply business. That sell to automotive upholstery shops. They should have the push pin rivets for pennies a piece!!

At Lowe's in the hardware isle there is a row of drawers of specialty fasteners. This is where if found the push in fasteners I needed to get my cart together. You will be able to get things together in time for Christmas. Here is just one example of what is available.

Good Luck.

Thanks for the help all.

I looked at the link cgtech, to get a parts list, thanks for posting that.
I could not locate any specs for diameter / dimension to find a comparable part as some others have noted in Lowes, Fabric Supply, or even Automotive store. If I add all to the cart from that site the cost is $70. I did find some cheaper on-line as noted and they are checking availability and will let me know.

Worse case I will try some trial and error with Lowes, Fabric Supply since I cannot locate product specs.


JW1-F3396-00-00 - Screw Special - 2 ea 2.06
90269-06804-00 - Rivet - 15 ea - 22.80
90267-63047-00 - Rvet Blind - 5 ea - 10.30
JW1-K7449-0-00 - Rivet 1 - 11 ea - 11.11
90269-08813-00 - Rivet - 11 ea - 11.11
90269-07001-00 - Rivet - 4 ea - 5.72
Total $69.48

Thanks All

While still ridiculous, better than $3-5/ea. These plastic clips are part of the game now days, new carts, new cars, everything has plastic BS.

ironsights I am not sure how you came up with $70 but the item at Lowe's has a 15 count in the packaging. To measure the diameter of the holes use your drill bit set. Good Luck.

Those were OEM parts and prices from the the link cgtech provided.
You are saying just use the X-Mas Tree style on all of them with the various sizes for the different diameter holes.

I assumed with the different styles they were for different purposes based on the application and location.
