Thanks.
 
Would these fit the ones that are missing from my rear passenger wheel liner that holds the tray ?

I thought I blew a tire, I started hearing a faint rubbing sound and couldnt find the source, when finally I noticed the fender wall rivets had popped off and it was rubbing againt the inside of the tire. I had to zip tie the pieces together. I also noticed many other missing too. My car is only 8 months old!
 
I managed to lose one when I when I removed the frunk trim to get to my 12V battery. I found this:

1006521-00-A Push Rivet

Q1) Is this the right animal...? Seems like it?

Q2) It rolled down to... well, I have no idea. Is there any mischief it could get into? I don't know how to even look for it, beyond the peeking I've done with a flashlight....

Bought a couple of 1006521's to try, but they didn't fit.

It looks like the correct part number is: 1128034-00-B.

Here are the details from the Tesla parts website: https://epc.tesla.com/#/systemGroups/81838?partNumber=1493760-00-A&partId=20070522

However, haven't found a website that sells them. Anyone with luck?
 
I bought these for my wife's Honda, they're labeled Toyota, and of the 3 cars I've tried them on the Tesla is the only one they fit right on. For $7 not a big risk. Used them to replace a missing one from the front bumper on my 2015 S85D.

Doing a little more searching, you can buy a grab bag of a bunch of different options for about $10, might be worth having around.
