Default Plastic trim pin holders source?

Anyone know a good source for the trim retainer female plastic sheet metal inserts for rear logo and the chrome strip under lock on S1 boot/trunk?
Also the speed nuts that hold other exterior trim on...

Thx

You can try the Autobody Supply stores in your area. I needed some, both male and female for my XJ40 when I did my headliner and the Autobody store in my area had a back wall filled with racks of them in all various sizes. When I lived in NYC I also was able to get some at Autobody stores there, so maybe it may be a common item they carry.
Unfortunately,nothing Jaguar specific. You would have to take the old ones and match them up as I did. Good luck.

If you mean those plastic rivets for the chrome strip over the number plate ( 3 pounds each ) - there is no substitute for the real thing
