Try Lowe's, if not find, a fastener wholeseller in your area.

Why not just buy it through your BMW dealers spare parts...That way you know it will be the right one and look the same as the others.

Think i'm gonna do that, just a bit lazy and looking for something more local. The nearest dealer is about 50 miles away :roll:

Always thinkin on 2 wheels :D . Work till 5, dealer closes at 5 xcept thurs. Hopefully it'll be decent on thurs or sat. Cold, I can deal with, snow, not so sure.
