Engine shield hardware info needed

My van had the two engine shields missing when I bought it and have now acquired the missing ones. From the schematics for this part it looks like it’s some type of metal clip that attached to the body and then he shield is screwed into the clip. GW sells the screw and washer for these. But does anyone know the specs in the hardware and where to buy the clips? Probably on one site together. What are these type of clips called?

Thanks!

Water cooled, there are a few shields screwed to the body, the ones at each head and the one above the muffler.

They use speednuts, U-nuts, C Nut, a folded piece of spring steel that is stamped to act as a nut.

Speed nuts. That’s what they are. Sure easier to find now....

Thanks!
