They should be available at a local parts house.

If not, MAM has them in a kit containing the caliper bolt, though a little pricy there (surprised).

raybestos makes some and if i remember right wagner makes some too, these should be caried by your local parts store if not then they can order them. if the guy at the parts store says that he cant find them find a new parts guy.
good luck

Try NAPA or Carquest. Both should carry little brake hardware kits.

Many other parts stores (Autozone, Kragen) don't carry the clips alone, last time I checked.

If you are talking about the pins with the spring clips, I had to take the GM available longer ones and drill through the heads, cut the pins and silver solder the heads back in place. No time to look for them. Let us know where you find them!

Got mine at Carquest. Came as kit. I wanted the retaining pin and it only came packaged. You get the pad/caliper retaining pin, E-clip, and 2 anti-rattle clips. I think it was $8.

The retaining pin has 2 grooves so it apparently fits more than just my92. I forget the part number but I can look when I get home if you need it.
