Kickdown Linkage bushings and clips

Anyone know of a source for the bushings and retaining clips for the C6 kickdown linkage rod?

The retainer clips were available separately, the bushing, no. The only way to get them was to buy a new kickdown linkage.
I'll see if I can locate some of the retainers for you.

EDIT: I was right, the bushings were never sold separately, you had to buy the rod.
The retainer clips are p/n 97409-S8 and there are a bunch of those still around. Green Sales in Cincinnati, OH has 274 in stock (800) 543-4959. But buying small parts like that from dealers or obsolete suppliers can get expensive.
If you want to try finding them at the hardware store locally, here's the description:
Snap ring, 13/64" ID X 17/32" OD X 1/32" thick.
If you want some other supplier names, let me know.
