correct. the original split shank push pins are not available, and even if they were, you can get a better fit with the newer fasteners. The plastic "christmas tree" style. Problem is, the major chain auto stores sell them in a pack of two, or a mixed pack for more than they are worth. Better bet is to make friends with the manager of your local large auto body repair shop - they will have a cabinet full of them, they come in a few different sizes, and grab a handful in exchange for some cash, lunch, or a favor. After you get your pad where you want it, you can clip off the excess close to the firewall.
