Default harness clips

where could I get some of those clips that are in the front wiring harness. the ones that hold it to the header bar.
not the straps.

Look at the right side of your screen.........near the bottom of the listing of Forum Vendors you will find the PARTS category......some of those Vendors/Parts Suppliers will have just what you need.

Hi s,
The arrows in the AIM point both 'metal clips' and 'plastic ties'.
The page you posted is for the headlight washer hoses. So the additional plastic 'ties' ties shown are for attaching those hoses to the existing harness.
So are you looking for 'clips' or "ties", or both?
Regards,
Alan

the photo was just for the location. the metal clips attached to the drivers side fender I have. the straps shown in the front I have. I see that the washer hose straps to the harness. I am looking for what holds the wiring harness up.

should be a plastic piece that is wrapped into the wiring harness then, pushes into holes on the header bar? Thanks.

I never noticed before but my harness is on the bottom. I would like to it make it proper. needs a rewrap.I have one of these in the wrap. searching vendors sites didn't turn up anything. I am thinking this is what holds it in place

Hi s,
I had to replace one of them on my harness.
I may have bought what you found.
I trimmed the round button into a rectangle like the original.
I was able to slip it into position on the harness without disturbing the black plastic wrap.
Glad you found what you needed.
Regards,
Alan

Where the existing ones are now (or were, if they're broken). Originals were included with the harness and wrapped with the wire bundle.

There will be corresponding holes in the headlight header bar at the push pin locations. Off the top of my head, I believe my 68 has three.
