1968 Instr. bezel clips

I'm trying to find the correct clips (J-nut?) that recieve the 3 screws that secure the top of the instrument bezel to the dash structure.
They have a cover that will prevent installing too long screws so the screws won't puncture the bottom of the dashpad.
I have lots of J-nuts & U-nuts used on aircraft, but none like these:
The first photo shows a clip installed on the dash.
The second is the cutout where it is installed.
The next 3 photos are the clip; top, side, bottom view.
Anyone know where to get these?

Neil

I think AMK sells 'em in their dash bezel install kit... mine is at the shop and no easy access to verify right now...

I might have a few spares lying around, how many do you need?

Ordered a couple kits from AMK. (Mr. G's was not user friendly to this computer novice. :-(
I'll see what I get- only missing 2 clips.

May have given you a bum steer. I just checked one of the recent kits I bought, it just has J clips... not the "S" type....
