    F2485006-3883-431D-9483-CEEFD9BB2DD7.jpeg I know I have seen these before. The pic is just for reference as to shape but they are flat steel, in this shape. Anybody know where to find them? The snap onto a round tube and act as a clip for a wire, etc. From what i remember they are about 1/2 wide, flat steel. I could use a couple for a finishing touch on my car and I cannot for the life of me find them.

    The pic you supplied, looks like a clip that holds your microphone wire on to the mic stand.

    I've only ever seen plastic ones. Tried a quick google search & didn't see any metal ones.

    I don't think I've seen a steel one in a million years. They've all gone plastic since the '90's AT LEAST, if not earlier.

    DUH. I have those on the mini bike I put together for my wife. OMB Warehouse probably has them too.

    Diameter required would help narrow the search down.

    Yeah, I couldn't remember where I had seen them until I did a search. Ain't gettin' old fun..................:eek:

    You may want to try a local lawn mower dealer. Clips like this are used to hold cables to the handles. Google lawn mower cable clips and you should get some idea where to go.

    You aren't kidding, they cleverly don't mention quantity...

    0FBA414C-F7EB-479B-9ED2-9421BC0A8DE5.jpeg Got a 10 pack for under $5 shipped. I have my temp gauge cable on my A taped to my spark plug tube and I hate it. This will do the trick! 2B994172-79EB-4C3C-9670-25EEC81A45EA.jpeg
