Radiator Shroud Clips

I am looking for a source for the clips that help attach the Radiator Shroud to the Top Plate. I believe they are called a 'J' type cage nut, and I need 2 of them. The thread is 5/16-18. They are sort of unusual in that the distance from the nut to the end of the clip is so small.
Thanks,
Randy

Napa used to have them on their nut, bolt, fastener carousel display. Now this was 4-5 years ago. I would assume they would still have.

BTW, those are the same clips as used for shock bolts on the front end

Yes, they also get used on the lower end of the front shocks.

If anyone has extras, I would like a set for my someday car. I bought some metric equivalents but the correct short spacing is very hard to find.
