H 6 cover plugs....
Does anyone know of an aftermarket plug of some sort, that can be used as a substitute for the $7.50 subaru part. I am referring to the two plugs/(clips) that hold on the H6 cover on the back of the engine. I have the rubber "seats" that they snap in to; just missing the black plug things....
Anyone know what I am talking about?? Thanks...

Not sure if you have an autozone in your neighborhood but they have an excellent replacement. Just look for the interior fasteners section, it's almost identical. I tried to find it online but I think the brand name is HELP, that name is to vague to pull up anyting.

Allen bolts
Hi, I used 2 allen bolts but I had to find nuts to fit them. Looks Good.
I lost one plastic screw at the 10th Subaru Plant. Some of you will remember the rush to get the cover off and signed by the Engineers. Bye .......Ralph

...and I'm willing to bet it is the driver side one that everyone is missing
I've thought about throwing some molly bolts on it before

thanks guys, for the help. These fasteners are not threaded, are they?
Aren't they just a black clip looking thing with a large head that just press into the rubber seats on the metal bracket?? I was one of the guys who had the cover signed buy the engineers at the 10th Ann. meet. The cover went with the car when I sold it to DavieGravie. When I recently bought my Liquid silver he traded the cover back to me....now I just need the fasteners. I have to go to the big city tomorrow, and will check at an auto zone for the "help" fasteners... If that is un-successful, there is always subaruparts.com.

I used those cheap plastic license plate grommets and used washers with the screws.
Cheap but it worked!!
