good evening everyone, i recently took my fenders off so i can remove the hood hinges, I took the round washer type clips off of the studs that hold the hinge to the body of the car. My question is ,what are those washers called? i broke them while prying them off, they were rusty, and where can i buy a set of 4.. any help would be appreciated..Rich
 
Go to eBay. And look. That’s where I got mine from. They are also the retaining clips for the trunk hinges.
 
I would just drill holes in the pins. Then install a flat washer and cotter pins. You can add washers to tighten them up and keep the hinge from rubbing the fender. Easy to do and a much better way to secure the hinge. This stabilizes the hinge . The clips always push off part way and rely on the fender to hold them on. Just a suggestion.
