I wonder if someone can help please?

I recently removed my carpet and broke the head off one of the plastic screws that holds the carpet in place.

The screws are located about level with the rear bolt of the front seats, one either side of the car. They go through the carpet and out through the bottom of the car.

Costwold didn't know what I was on about when I tried to get a replacement so I wondered if anyone knew what the screw was called?

Many thanks.

cheers, simon

Can you post a photo of the other?

Is it a 4-door? Cannot find the plastic screws in my 2-door - would have posted them to you for nothing if i could have found them (interior removed from one car, the other is being broken for spares fro myself)
