Fender script clips

[p24-1953]

Does anyone know the size of the fender script clip or is it a speed nut?

while they look similar..the speed nut is based on the two flat slightly on different planes...the clip is on the same plane with the two flaps...both are easily located by size of the pin they are going on at most any hardware store.

I would only use the push on type of retainer not speed nuts as most of these years used pot metal to make the name badges  and the retainer pins easily break. Also they often are held on by the push in the hole type of a spring clip that goes in the hole from outside and the badge pins just gets pushed into the hole in the retainer. The hole in the sheet metal for placement also needs to be larger than the pin on the badge for this type.

 

I bought a bag of 4-5 various sizes off EBay years ago and was not to expensive. I believe the seller is in Florida and regularly advertised all type of clips, etc. there.
