Barrel nuts
Having a hard time finding the right barrel nut for tailgate trim. Anyone know where to find them. I picked up some 1/8" and 3/16", one is too small and one too big. They didn't any size between.

Re: Barrel nuts
Are you talking about the self threading type nut? I have some in my parts drawer. Measure the dia. of the stud and send it to me.

Re: Barrel nuts
not sure if these are what you're looking for or if you need the 'push-on' or barrel clip style. My guess is the barrel clip since you're talking tailgate trim and theres no way to get a wrench in where the trim goes.

Found these on Amazon too https://www.amazon.com/Retro-Motive-...a-835064227378 https://bobdrake.com/products/1948-u...barrel-clips-5 http://retro-motive.com/emblem-trim-...ud-qty-25-218/

Re: Barrel nuts
Thanks everyone, I think the Emblem & Trim Barrel Clips Tubular Nuts Fit 3/16" Hole- 5/32" Stud (Qty-25) #218 are the right ones. They didn't have that size at our nut and bolt place. Ordered on Amazon, I'll let you know if they work. Thanks again.
