I purchased some systainer inserts direct from Festool some months back, and they were kind enough to include the die-cut paper insert that attaches to the lid. However, they didn't send any of the white plastic push-in tabs that are used to secure the paper to the roof of the systainer. I was wondering if anyone knows what this part number, or better yet, knows the "generic term" for these fasteners or where I can find them online. I checked my local hardware store but wasn't able to find an equivalently sized fastener. Thanks.
 
You can call Festool and they should have them.  I've ordered them from them in the past.
 
It looks like those white tabs are part number 700579. Keep in mind you will need to order 4 of them as they are sold individually.

You can purchase these directly from Festool's Parts Department at 800-554-8741
 
Wasn't able to connect with Festool parts department, so I went to my local hardware store and found a solution: clear plastic "arrow clips." Here's a page that shows what they look like. I can't recall exactly what size I used, but they fit so well that I can't remove them with my fingernails. More than secure enough for the cardboard lid inserts.

Oh, and they were 20 cents a pop.
