While removing the air intake, filter, and washer fluid reservoir in my 2001 weekender I found some clips used to retain wiring harnesses and washer fluid lines that had become brittle and/or broken. The clips have an audi symbol and the number P-1077 on them.

I designed a replacement that seems to work well. I used a TPU filament and printed with 35% infill which keeps them mostly rigid but allows for some flex as well (like the originals). It still press-fits over the threaded studs that were used to retain the originals, and does the job. Although they look slightly different they are similar dimensions.

If you have a 3d printer or access to one through a friend or your local library, I've posted the stl files here: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:6055182
