I dont know where you live but if you have an ace or true value hardware store they usually have a great misc nut and bolt section they also have those body panel bolts and nuts. which is what it looks like what you are showing us.
 
There's a local place here called fender mender which is a paint/body supply store. That is where I always get mine. Good luck finding the last two pictured, I haven't been able to locate them anywhere.
 
OK, I can identify those for you. The first is just a push pin of sorts. I bet it came from the trunk latch cover, right? The ones right next to the latch. The other two are hooks for the cargo net option. I believe they were installed whether your 'stang came with a cargo net or not.

As for replacing them, I can only suggest stangparts.com. Call them and see if they can help you. I bought a cargo net from them, and got a couple of spare hooks from them. If you buy a cargo net from Ford, it comes with two of the hooks.

I can find generic push pins in my local Kragen Auto store. Check the generic hardware section of your local parts store, and they should have something close.

...hardware bins at Home Depot....
Really? I'll have to check it out...I would have figured these were custom ford things...I'll stop by there on my way home. Thanks.
 
Do they have to be that long?

Because the ones that Ace Hardware have in stock aren't that long.

I know Ford has them, but I wouldn't want to see the bill afterwards.

The second ones I have never seen. My guess is that's a Ford only item.

Well, checked with home depot today...they don't have anything like them...probably just because this store/service is crappy, but it's the only one for miles.

It looks like I may have to go thru ford if stangparts.com doesn't have them, they'll want big bucks for those dumb little parts. I'll keep ya'll posted.

Thanks for the info guys.
 
ford will not want a lot of money for them. i think they were like .25 a piece when i wanted them. and the guy at the counter just offered to give me like 5 for free. just go in and ask.
 
Well, finally got a chance to talk to ford. They told me they had the "push pin" things. But, they said that those cargo net hook/bolt things aren't made anymore, and he can't order them :mad: . I think he's lying, but that's the kind of service here at this ford.

Any other ideas? :shrug:

I'm going to be travelling here shortly, if all else fails, I might be able to find them at a wrecking yard on the way.

Thanks

edit: well, I got the ones at ford, very cheap so recommended to get oem there.
As far as the cargo things, still not convinced they don't carry them...but for now, not a big deal....I'll just get them from a junkyard when I go on my next trip.
