Thanks Rick, one of our Buick restorers had some made, but could not tell if they were different design then the Chevrolet design. Or if the Chevrolet ones were re poped ? I'll post a pic of one later off the car. The originals had a T on them.

Does someone sell that Speedo Cable Clip or is there a company that reproduces them?
I have never seen one before.

Here is a NOS clip I ordered 20 years ago,I got the last 2 left in the parts system at that time.
This part number was from the 69 chevelle assembly manual.
