AC Vent - Hidden Screw Cover - Where to buy?

Ladies and Gents,

I was installing my retrofit chrome line interior today, which went as well as expected (tedious and slow, but not difficult).

Unfortunately, I can no longer locate one of the "hidden screw covers". These are black plastic inserts that cover screws directly behind the large center speedometer. There are two, one for the left screw and one for the right.

Does anyone know where these can be sourced?

Talk to Justin at Sewell, great service...

See #2:

I imagine it is a universal part for all the R56s...

(I did select pieces of interior chrome line on my MINI, those little things are boogers, aren't they?)

I just found it at sewells online store. It costs $2.05, and 10 for shipping Think I'll call the local mini dealer and see if they have it in the parts department. Such a silly part to lose. Thankfully its cheap to replace.

for those wondering... It is Part #51452752772... Cover air outlet grill, right
