Name/noun, vendor, and/or part number please?
These are the square "things" the spring loaded "things" screw into; to hold down the plastic grill (above the cabin filter). I'm totally at a loss for a nomenclature, a part # and a reliable vendor.


As shown, they are round instead of being a key-hole rectangle..


Wollered out...


Thx

I believe they are called "Zeus fasteners" but those are usually metal. :

Correct, although the term is actually Dzus (pronounced "zeus") and these are a little different, although they perfrom a simlar function.

The BMW part number for these "plug-in nuts" is 51711947419, part number 14 under heating and air conditioning / microfilter.
