panel clips? Whatever they're called

[paulfoel]

Sort of like paper clips used to clip two sheets of metal together. Any ideas what they're called? Panel clips?

Any idea where I can get them from?

I don't recognise the description. What applications are they normally seen?

I think they're also called fairing clips or u clips apparently. Usually found in car body work.

In my case, its to clip the bottom panel back on my cooker....

All sorts of thing on Google images under "panel clips" might give a clue perhaps. Maybe a a vehicle upholsterer/trimmer/coachbuilders might be able to help. I suspect they would otherwise be sold by the 1000s to trade users.

Any of these look suitable?

If they are used on cars try the Frosts Renovation site .Are they the things like a pece of folded metal with a couple of teeth on one side to hold the screw thread and you put a screw through.
