Camera Mount Screw Thread

What sort of filter mount do I need?

I have a Canon EOS 300 SLR (film) camera, and I want to get a UV filter to attatch to the lens (it’s a kit lens, a canon 28-80mm, with diameter 58mm. Pretty standard). I’ve looked on ebay, and almost all of the filters are snap-on type filters, but then I looked up the lens specifications, and apparently it has a screw filter mount. I’ve looked closely at my lens, and it has a screw thread on the inside, and some bits of plastic that look like snap-on mounts on the outside…
Can I use snap-on filters, or do I need the screw-on ones?
Thanks.

Only use screw on filters.

The bayonet fitting you see is for a lens shade
