Default need to find a part... anyone help me? dome light clip

there is a little clip that goes on the dome lights onto a stud that keeps the domelights secured to the roof, and also supports the headliner. Jeep calls them a "Speed Nut". Unfortunately I cannot find them at a dealership. mine broke when removing to redo the headliner. I just 2 of those little guys. Otherwise I will need to buy 2 tiny long screws to put in there to replace the studs. Anyone help me out?

I'd probably look at Ace hardware before the JY.

Alas if you get desperate, Mcmaster Carr has almost every piece of hardware known to man.

The bad part is you'll have to buy 100's of them most of the time. The good part is, it'll probably cost the same to get 100 as it would have been to get 2 at the dealer.

They have 100's of little bins, and need to find something different to put in each one!
