Where to find 1/8" badge pin clips?

[Plymouth_Ruster]

I've been looking for badge clips for my '74 Scamp, but so far the only ones I've been able to find are sold by Panhandle Fasteners and More, who appear to be on indefinite hiatus. They have no working website and their Ebay storefront has been marked as "seller is away" for two months now. Does anyone know where else to get these clips from?

Picture, please.
There's lots of different style clips used, depending on the badge/emblem.
Some types you can just get at the hardware store.

Never mind... got alternatives when I tried to search for a decent photo. Whoops. It's the little round push-on retainers. Look like a sand dollar.

They're usually speed nuts

or barrel clips

Both are available at hardware stores like Ace or TruValue. Much cheaper than the repro houses for the identical piece.

If you mean these, they're also at the hardware store.

Thos're them. I was under the impression that speed nuts weren't that great for this, but I don't know if there's any truth to that.

They've used all three at some point over the years. My '66s and '68s used speed nuts on most emblems with a few barrel clips here and there. Not sure what your year used, although I know the press-on clips/rings were phased in at some point.
