Help!! where do you get the push pins for light weight XP hoods??

I have the light weight hood for my XP and the retainer pins that hold it in place have broke or just falling out. I called my dealer and he said I had to order another new hood for 250.00 plus bucks to get a set of 4.00 pins. WHAT THE HE11!!!!!!!!! I suppose when it comes time for new spark plugs I'll have to order a new motor.........Anyway Im sure someone out there can get these retainer pins, any help is appreciated.........

generally industrial supply places like ACKLANDS GRAINGER etc have lots of pins and retainers etc...you just may have to jerry rig abit...im not familiar with your set up as i am a cat owner but i know that some thought will be needed if you don;t have the stock supply option...but the pieces are out there somewhere

If that's what you need in the above picture, I have some of the pegs, but with a regular screw not that spike pictured. If that's what you need just let me know and I'll just send them to you

i have a stock hood still but what i did to help keep it on was go to napa, pick up some rubber gromets and those plastic clips "like the ones used on windshields where the middle pops in and out" and drilled the appropriate sized holes in my hood and sled.
