Plastic Screw Grommet

Hey all, first post. Love yotatech, long time lurker.

I was replacing my marker light bulb and lost a couple of the plastic grommets that hold the screws. I 3D printed my own and they work great. I'm posting the link here in case anybody might find this useful.

Here is where to download the STL file: http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:288322

Here it is on shapeways if you don't have a 3D printer: https://www.shapeways.com/model/1834...12-pieces.html

Pretty expensive at $7 for 12 of them (I don't get any of the money), they are only 2 cents to print yourself on the 3D printer.

You can probably get these for free from a junk yard or any mechanic.

Dorman has a wide selection of those nuts http://www.dormanproducts.com/catalo...ec20_Part5.pdf and they often show up in my local parts houses on racks. I can't recall what they retail at.

Of course, price isn't really a concern when you've got a 3D printer!!
