Anybody know where I can find more of these? They are the clips that attach the fender to the body. I have searched through several catalogs but can't find them. Perhaps there is an alternative??

I grabbed a bunch of screws washers and clips from Lowe's. The clips were in the specialty drawers.

they are just standard speed nuts with half the front cut off.
you can get them in this form but most car makers just have them cut if there is limited amount used on the car vs large amount of standard ones. So you can pic up standard ones and cut as you need.

I just get them from the champion assortment rack in most auto stores or more specific sizes and larger quantities from Wurth.

Wurth do have the half cut ones too.

Give FASTENAL a try, if you have one in your area. Good Luck!

I bought a box of the correct ones from my local Au-Ve-Co dealer. Don't have the post number in front if me right now, but Google is your friend. 8-)
