Bumper Lenses (esp. if uve had urs stolen)

Well, a few months ago I had my front bumper replaced along with some other work. My clear corners never looked like the sidemarker was in position right. When I went to remove them to try to look at them, I noticed that I was missing whatever the bolt on the sidemarker locks into on the bumper.

Has anyone else lost this or know where I can get new ones? Thanks

you mean the screw/retainer that holds the front half in? or the metal stud/plastic retainer that holds the back half on?

you can get both at home depot, you do not need to get anything special for either one. just try, not like it will cost alot. or put a peice of clear tape where the two lights meet.( not scotch tape)

The half that faces the turn signal. There is a metal stud, and it locks into a plastic retainer ( Similar to the corner lights).

yea, its a metal stud with a plastic retainer. do you have stock or aftermarket corners? If they are stock, nissan would have the stud. either way, nissan will have the plastic retainer you need. its very specific, and i personally think home depot would NOT have it, unlike what ManualMaxima said

If you need the plastic retainer- I can mail it to you.
I have extras- Not only did I replace the stock, but I hit some stupid kid and cracked one of my clear corners- so I had to buy another set of four.

Well, $5 for his effort in helping me..I dont know the part number, and the dealership around here are idiots and would never be able to come through with it.

Well nm on the $5 shipped. It might be possible that when I had some bodywork done, they did not use an OEM bumper and that the grommets will not fit it.
