    I've got these holes calling out for a fastener, does it take a plastic rivet? If so, anyone know what kind/size? Looks like maybe 5/16".

    Drivers rear is broken, but also the hole is bigger. Anyone know what's up with this?

    Yeah, they are just plastic push in clips.
    Mine did the same thing. Even broke in the same place.

    Might check your rear mud flaps. The ones in mine fell out of them too.
    It’s also got bolts, so I haven’t worried about it too much.
