70-71-72 grill

Does anyone have a source to get the correct plastic nuts for the 70-71-72 grills? Needed are the four per side headlight bezel nuts. I know two are long and two are short. Then the four per side grill inserts for the 70. Then the six per side 71-72 short ones I believe. I have grill nuts that fit in 1/4" square holes but their the flat ones.
I would like to buy in quantity. Any help appreciated.

How many dozens would you like?

Needed are the four per side headlight bezel nuts. I know two are long (380442S) and two are short (382735S).

Then the four per side grill inserts for the 70.

Then the six per side 71-72 short ones I believe (383356S) How many dozens of these would you like?
Cannot help you with 1970 grille insert nuts, because the part numbers aren't listed.

1970: There were two different types of grille inserts and two different types of grille shells.

Before serial number J30,001 there are right & left grille inserts, one specific grille shell for these inserts.

From serial number J30,001, the two grille inserts are the same right & left, the shell was modified so these inserts would fit.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
380442S & 382735S are both obsolete, but I found 100's, many right here in LA LA Land.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
383356S has been replaced by N806334S and is available from FTE sponsor PARTSGUYED.COM @ 37 cents each. MSRP is $0.63 each.

I have the current Au-Ve-Co Products Catalog: 353356S is available from them in a pkg of 25. The other two p/n's are no longer available.

They must be repops, as they are not listed on DC's NOS parts website.
