These are the inserts that push into the nose of the fender for the outer set of headlamp bezels on the '64 Dodge and maybe more years. They get very brittle and I would like to install new/remanufactured if anybody has a lead. I have some coming for competing brands that are close enough to work, but I'd rather have the orig. style. Just a detail; but important to me.

Thanks in advance for any help...

Good lead. There is a site called clipsandfasteners.com that is a division of Au-ve-co that I ordered a small quantity of four different fasteners that might work. However, they didntt have the exact replacement. I did get an email from Ted at Stevens Perf. asking for a few more dimensions. I sent him those this morning, we'll see how close they get.

Haven't looked but Au-ve-co has almost any automotive fastener.
 
for those that care; looks like this is where it's gonna land. i haven't heard back from Stevens Perf. yet...

Au-Ve-co P/N 21575...

There is a company called J&T fasteners that make a lot of replacement factory chrome clips, headlight adjuster screws etc. I am pretty sure that i have used the exact same part you are looking for on my Dusters grill. I have the catalog at home, but I'm at work now. You can try searching on the Internet for the company to see if the catalog is available. If no luck, I'll try looking in my book when I get home in the am. Hope this helps. Our local NAPA store also carries a small line of similar clips too.
