Default Dashboard clips

So I got my dash pad removed so that way I could put a new speaker underneath but whenever I got the passenger side out the clip that goes in the dashboard area came out and I've looked for three weeks and cannot find it anywhere in the car does anybody know where I can locate these?

Looks similar to what is used on other full wrap around dash pad & metal dashes, look up ones used for a 68 gto to compare.

Look the same as 68 AC dash pad clips ... I've never seen them reproduced, all I could find were the square dash pad clips which I think were used in the non-AC 68 dash pads.

It's a clip that holds a push-in pin with a knob on the end.

They are a strange spring steel clip. As far as I know, they are 66 full size car only. They are definitely different than a 65, which are plastic. I have 2 NOS clips here I will send you. PM me your address. You can have them.

Oh my gosh that would be amazing thank you very much I'm fairly new to the site so it might take me a little while to figure out how to send you a PM

In a pinch I bet a fender washer and a wing nut would work in absence of the clips.
