HTAuto Rear Aprons Install Issues

Hey guys, just wondering if anyone has had trouble installing the rear aprons on the Toyota 86, specifically the most inner push pin. It clicks in but it doesn't actually secure the panels together properly.

Just installed it last night and had the same issue with only one side. Turns out the push pin was just bad, try using a new one?

Yeh I tried using both the original push pin and the new ones that came with the kit and had the same issue. I noticed there was a slightly bigger gap between the panels on the inner end. It still holds together fine without it but it'd look better if the end butts up perfectly against the panel.

The self-tapping screws makes me feel more secure about it though haha

Mine didn't come with any hardware so I used the push pin hardware, definitely had to grind the inside a bit though for it to work, fits very nice and snug now though

Anyone know what size or how to source these push pins for the rear spats? I need 1 extra set to install mine.
