Default Underhood Wire Clips

Okay, this is probably not the right place to ask, but its a start. I am having some cosmetic paint work done on my 96. One of the tasks is to repaint the UNDERSIDE of the hood. The goal is to bring it back to "as new" condition. My concern is popping off the plastic clips that hold the wiring in place for the lighting under the hood. Anyone got a line on where to get these little hummers. I think it would be good to have them in hand before we start the process. Some of them are bound to be broken in the process.

I believe this is what you are looking for. I don't have a good pic yet of the small clip, but it is the same basic principle as the large one.
