Hi my fellow Forders,

I am having trouble locating nylon rivets for electrical connections for my My 90 F150 & 89 FSB. I need the kind that slide into the back of the switch. Here are two for example:







& here's a picture to illustrate where the white one would be used:



Does anyone know where these can be ordered? Not quite sure what to search on. Googling "nylon rivets for electrical connections" comes back with all kinds of results but nothing that slides into the back of a lamp switch like the one pictured.

Thank you

 

Your best bet would probably be Graingers, McMaster or RoBrand. I included a link to RoBrand for you. You may need to email a photo of what you are looking for so they know what you are looking for.

Thanks Red97350,
I'll check those out.

These clips go to the underhood lamp switches for both F150 & FSB. Wondering now if it wouldn't be more economical & better to install some kind of other light, e.g. LED strip?
Found this thread on FSB & for $20'sh can make the underhood light much brighter.

 

Check fastenall, they have a lot of this stuff as well.

 

Working for Ford, I don't think I've seen those available separately.
NumberDummy may be able to help if it has ever been available.
The closest thing I can think of available is this:

 

Hey, that's pretty close :0)

The white rivet goes to the mercury switch part of the hood light. I had some fun with the continuity setting on the multimeter tilting the switch back & forth.

Thanks guys
