My back up plan is that i've ordered some shelf item 13mm ball studs. they should work.

Did anyone else get a short stud from the stealer?

The factory Ball Pin from the dealer cost me i think about 10 or 11 bucks. I have a spare now that i found the original... Since no one guessed where i found it, ill just say, I removed my plastic mud gaurd from the fender and there is was, craddled in the mud guard.

It has about 10 threads on it which is how many the new one i bought has, Its still in good working condition, you just need the nut for it.
