John,

Give me a call. I might have a spare clippy doohicky in my parts stash. I definitely have your 24mm socket and Pertronix sensor.

Yep, the clip thing seems to have gone its own direction at some point. Kinda hard to drive around without it.

Loosely fitted zip tie will work for a temp fix.

john1180 is correct: a zip tie will work wonders in the short term. But in the longer term, I plan to buy a nice chalet in Switzerland on the profits I make from the sale of an ultra rare, vintage, OEM, NLA clippy gizmo to littlejohn. I need somewhere to land the new helicopter I plan to buy with the proceeds from a pair of original, authentic, distressed-look, organically-pitted, amber side turn indicators that I'm putting on eBay.

Wow, that stuff sounds right up my alley, let me know before it hits ebay. lol.

I was just going get a cotter pin from the hardware store as a quick fix, but already have zip ties. I will venture into the cold now.
