I have been searching but can't find the answer. I have a friend who is converting a duece dash into a custom CJ-6 he is building. He is missing some of the 1/4 turn dash panel clips. I just pulled my truck apart to paint the interior and found I need one too.
Is there a source for these. I have been searching but I am not sure what to even call them.

I don't have my truck yet to verify this but they look like an aviation fastener. You might try searching DZUS 1/4 turn fasteners online. I am sure someone will be around shortly who probably has some, or knows where to get them cheaper that I do.

Mcmaster and fastenal don't seem to have them, and a search for dzus brought up similar stuff, but not the exact clips. Any ideas?

Excellent! I'll give them a try. The first and most important part was what they were and how to spell it. :smile:

I used to really like Tacoma screw products on Leary way when I lived in Seattle 20 years ago.
I had no idea they had a store here in PDX. Cool!

I'll post my findings with part numbers if I am successful.

Has anyone found the actual military part number and a source for the correct post and clips?
The clips are secured to the dash wall itself, but the more important piece is the screw post used to secure the guage panel to the dash wall.

:-?

Thanks for the link.
I just spoke with them and they have none in stock. They're trying to locate more, but it seems these are a hard commodity to find.
