Clips for side skirts

Hey guys,
I managed to brake a few of the clips that hold my AE side skirts on. I went to the dealership and they don't show anything that pertains to the AE so they were not able to get me the proper clips. I need the three clips that hold half of the right front side skirt on. They are similar to the clips that hold the door panels on, but they are a little bit shorter. Can anyone help me out with a part number or a clip that they know will work? Thanks.

I'm not sure if the hole in the side skirts are visible or hidden, but if they're visible you can try plastic rivetss. http://www.princessauto.com/pal/en/A...vets/8325177.p
I use them lots when I don't have a specific push clip. Only thing is you have to break it and install a new one if you have to take the panel off again.

I am aware of those but that's not what I am looking for. The clips hold on to the side skirt, and then you push them into the grommets that are in the rocker panel.

Just to follow up on this, Nissan was not able to help me locate the clips, so I took a chance on these http://www.amazon.com/dp/B0040CX5RE/...190_TE_3p_dp_1

and they worked! Everything is back on with functioning clips now.
