Yeah, my Brother's wife is from Boston & heads back home every year for a visit, so I'll get her to stock up on similar small but expensive items if she can find them cheaply over there. One good thing lately is that our dollar is quite strong on international currency markets and has appreciated more than 30% against the US dollar recently to the stage where it is virtually on par with the $US. So even with shipping, many items (even big heavy ones like steel bumpers, winches) are half the price to buy online from the US & ship here right now so I'll start getting a few mods done while I can afford it.

At least reading some of the responses here I don't feel so bad now as it seems that with regards to stupid little plastic clips things are almost as bad in the US & Canada.

Best price I found was $2.88 a piece online. I purchased a few when I bought some other items.
