Hi
I have hard time to find the clips who fix the screws of the tail light.
It's seem like it's possible to buy the screws, but not the clips/speed nuts.

Input are welcome.

I bought a whole box of them on Amazon. Nothing special that needs an original part.

Actually the tail light clips are a bit different, the front tab is shorter to fit better, but it's minor....

Speed Nut - 4.8 x 19.8 x 12.7

Buslab also has these. Shipping is about $7 so perhaps you need some other odds and ends.
