Only one I see out there is in Germany. About $30 with international shipping. Anywhere else I MIGHT be able to find one?

Would love to see that, much appreciated!

We've found metal ones at the junk yard.

I printed one for mine and it's been doing the job just fine

I got a pic of the one I made. There was an existing threaded hole there.

This gives me an idea for a little L bracket, drill a hole, and pop in a replaceable plastic clip. Thanks!

I harvested a few of those at the boneyard. I fiddled with it for a while and couldn't quite get it situated. I'll try again to see if I can make that work temporarily. The pic helps. I think the changes in the holes in that panel over the years is why it's not quite intuitive how to use the later clip, staring at an 87 panel.
