Default Broken plastic inserts(tail lights)2006 H3

2006, H3 ,I replaced my rear tail lights and had a hard time getting the old assembly off. While pulling the assembly(tail lights ) off the plastic inserts broke( the ones that the pegs go in to attach the light assembly to the veh.Can I get new plastic insert anywhere. I tried gluing them but they keep popping out now.Please Help.
THANKS

no, I just used the self tapping screws and went through the plastic housing into the main body of the 3... its not a perfect fix, that's why Im hoping you figure something else out or track down those clips...

Default Found them

Just contacted the local Hummer dealer and he's ordering the "retainer clips" for me. $3.50 a pop but glad I found them
