Hi all,
I swapped out my badlands grille to an aftermarket gloss black grille and, in the process, damaged some of the pushpins that hold the grille assembly in place. Does anyone know the part number so I can order replacements?
Thanks for any help you can provide!

A quick connect is a very good suggestion. I already need to remove (and then re-attach) my grille because I cracked it trying to install it, and I forgot to paint the camera housing black.
To be honest, it's been a minute since I did the wiring, so I don't remember precisely how I did it. I'd watch that youtube video before cutting any wires.
Answering for myself only, I went with IAG instead of Oracle because I wanted fully illuminated letters rather than backlit letters.
Edit: I believe IAG may also have been cheaper.
The wiring was very easy, and I have no experience or expertise with wiring. I just used the online owner's manual to figure it out (and Bluecharm's youtube installation video). I have them wired to Aux 6 (they come with their own fuse).

I was too scared to use power towels based on others' experiences...

I am just going to powder coat my trim rings.
Still looking for anyone who is interested in swapping a wildtrack grille (with front camera housing) for my badlands grille (with front camera housing). I'll make a separate post for this too.
An update, so that I do not lead the community astray. I contacted The Wheel Fix again, and they quoted me $40/ring (assuming that I remove and re-install myself). Much more reasonable.
