Ross, Thanks for the links, I saved them to my favorites. Even if they don't have clips that I can use, they do have a lot of odd automotive fasteners and parts that might come in handy. Thanks for checking for used clips also.
Thanks again, Mark

Doc, Thanks for your reply. Drilling a hole and using a different style clip may be the best idea, as my truck is not going to be completely original anyways.
Thanks, Mark

If they don't have to be concours originals, you can always make your own from strips of 20ga sheet metal with a hole drilled/punched for the bolt and bent to hold the wire loom, then dipped in rubberized tool dip stuff. Similar to this..




Or these are available in bags at most auto parts store in the electrical section....they come in several sizes.

That's what I used, with a carefully placed self-tapping sheet metal screw.
