Default Zip ties with backs?

Remember those zip ties with the backs that slide on to them that holds whatever your trying to hold up in place? I think a lot of guys were using them to mount their tranny coolers... im changing my a/c condenser and i need to remount the cooler.. and i like to use those just to hold it in place while i hard mount it with nuts/bolts...

anyone remember where to buy those, i forget what they are called exactly, but i couldnt find it on summit.

You could use zip ties with a wire coat hanger. I know it isn't what you're looking for but coat hangers work wonders.

My local Checker had them when I needed some extras. You're talking about the ones that the tranny coolers come with to mount to the radiators right?

sometimes Lowes or Home Depot have things like that back around the misc. bolt section. I know they have quite a few different plastic clips for automobiles back there.
