Retainers for engine hood.
Someone had a thread about useing chrome caps on the 15 retainers that attach to the/as the retainer. Someone suggested the use of chrome caps used for kitchen sinks. I don't remember the link. What is the link and how do I get back to review links information.?
Thanks for your help.

I'd be interested in that too. I've somehow lost one of mine and the dealer took over 1/2 hour to figure out what part to order. Then when the clips came in, they were different than what was on my car. They tried to pawn it off on me, saying that it was 'similar'. 
It was a different size and was smooth on the top. They took another hour and a half on the phone to GM trying to figure out what to order. Ended up faxing a photo of one of the ones on my car to them. They said it may be a couple of months. If you find anything that looks nice - please let me know. I'm ordering chrome trim for the engine bay so chrome on the hoodliner may look nice.
