What is the name of this fixing?

[wilber]

Could anyone tell me what you call these please? I need to replace some and i cant for the life of me find the name or where to buy them.

A spring clip? Probably has an official name but that’s the best I can do right now.

Cheers. It has thrown up some similiarlooking clips but they still are not the right ones. Trying to source these has been driving me nuts for some time now.

U-base clips?

Close but designed for flat type connector not the one like in the picture. i also need some of those brass coloured connectors that they latch over but the clip is more important atm.

Must be something like a spring latch and ball stud fixing then, what's it from out of curiosity?

Google image "spring clip" - first one looks sorta close like what you are after, if not you will find it there somewhere!

It’s a spring latch and pin/stud. Might struggle to find a direct replacement though.

You've both put me on the right track! closer than ever to finding the right one. Just need to take some measurements. Thankyou i can stop pulling my hair out now.

Could try a PEM stud, they might well have something.
