I had to source the fastener size by trial & error as the dealer did not have any parts reference but did have a broad selection of plastic fastners. The plastic fasteners are the type that look like a fat thumb tack with a button in the center of the head. Upon insertion the button is pressed flush with the head causing the inserted end of the fastener to expand prongs which lock it into place (to remove the fastner the button is further depressed into the head with a pointed object which allows the prongs to contract thereby releasing the fastener). The fasteners I used FIRMLY held the "Holder" in place without any play. NOTE: Screws cannot be used as the seat frame holes are not threaded AND clearance is such that a screw driver can't be used.

* "First Aid" kit P/N 52-10-7-044-958 @ $19.70. This just slides/snaps into place in the "Holder" without any problem.
I just installed the kit today and it turns out that the "holder" requires 3 fasteners, not 2. The 3rd fastener is a bit difficult to get to since the horizontal bar under the seat is somewhat in the way. Also, you CAN use screw...which I ended up using some #14 x 3/4 sheetmetal screws that are self-tapping. 1/2 inch would be much better, but the 3/4 inch was all that I could find.
