Source for spoiler clips?

My rear spoiler of my 95 LX hatchback is floping around on one side. It appears to be that the black bracket within the trunk isn't holding the tabs on the spoiler anymore. Either that, or the tabs themselves are worn too much.

Anyways, the little plastic brackets are a whopping $39 a piece at the dealership, and I would need 2 per side. Rediculous. I'd rather have the side of the spoiler flop around (and it has).

Anyone find a good solution to this? I assume I'm not the only one experiancing this, it looks like a poor attachment system to begin with.

Re: Source for spoiler clips?

Any independent body shop should have some sort of universal clips to hold the spoiler on. I'd go to some body shops and ask around for a solution. I know about dealers. I went there for a drain plug bolt and they wanted $10 for one. Got one at Auto Zone for $1.50. Yeah. Ask around at some body shops. They could help you.

The yards around here wouldn't go for it. Basically they need to deem it worthy of pulling. And no U-pull's around here. If it isn't a door, alternator, or some other tangable item, you can't get it from the junkers.
