Rear harness clips

1955 F250

What should I be using for clips to hold down the wiring running along the frame back to the taillights and the crossover harness?

They don't need to be period correct. Functional to keep things neat is most important. That said, often the factory solution remains the best solution.

Thanks!

Check the channel thickness as well.

They are 1/4 in for F100 but may be thicker for yours

Might I suggest giving Dennis Carpenter Ford restoration parts (https://www.dennis-carpenter.com). He has a pretty expansive selection for those kinds of clips, etc. Even if he doesn't have the exact replacement, he has clips for many other applications that might fill the bill. Good luck, 8pack.
