speed nuts (where to buy?)

I am finding a lot of rusty 'speed nuts' (awaits jokes.... also called Tinnerman or U-type fasteners) in the removal/tidy of my front bumper. I haven't rung the OPC yet... but I've got a feeling replacing them all directly from Porsche could mount up.

Does anybody have ideas of how standard they are, alternative/cheaper sources, etc.?

You can find them on flea bay as landrover undertray clips if I remember correctly. The ones I bought are superb and so useful.

Multi pack . Good to have one lying around.

Also try screwfix and Toolstation
 
My local factors do them in varying sizes for 20p each. Worth checking them (and I don't mean Halfrauds).
 
Google for an independent fasteners near to you. I have two near me, but they're sometimes tucked away and hard to find unless you really look for them.

You can get anything you want there, including if they need to order anything in, in any quantity you need for cheap.
