I am having trouble finding an actual name for a part I am looking for. They are little white snap-on pins that mount PCBs to brackets and such. My Monte Carlo had a bunch of these pins and most were dried out and broke with barely any force. Now that I have rebuilt the backbox, I cant mount the PCBs anywhere at the moment. If someone can point me in the right direction or tell me a way to make makeshift PCB mounts, that would be awesome!
 
I made spacers once with an old bic pen. take off the top and the writing part with the ink then just saw it to size. Works in a pinch. I think drinking straws would work too.
