Need help identifying a part

[DavidR8]

I took the plastic off my 2013 so I could install the valve cover protectors.
I discovered one the stainless steel screws and flat nuts had been lost and replaced with a socket head cap screw and a nylock nut.
It’s on the left side.
The part under the fairing panel where the screw would attach to has quite a large hole, maybe 1/2" diameter so I’m dubious that a flat nut is what goes there.
But I cannot find any thing for that area in the parts fiche.
Hoping someone with more experience can point me in the right direction.

Hello David R8
Go to Max BMW parts fish and you will find the piece you need under 46-Frame, Fairing, Cases. Lateral Trim Panel Rear, part # 51-71-1-916-197, Lock. It's a hard black plastic screw that locks in by a quarter turn.

Awesome, looks like I’ve found the part.
The reason I want to have it as it should be is because I don’t like it being not original and because taking the plastic off should only require a T25 Torx.

FWIW, when I find I have to order parts like this, I always buy extra......especially if they are those plastic push-pins. If I'm not losing them, I'm wearing them with removal and insertion.
