    Try "Restoration Specialties". They are in Penn. Have an online catalog & usually have pictures of original size & shape. You could also send them samples to match up.

    $319.00 + shipping. They fit in a medium "Flat Rate" box, so in the 48 states around $12.00

    P.S. Restoration Specialties has clips for ALL cars, not just Mopar. Sure you got the correct one in Pa????
