Aye,

 

      We all know these things, these clips or (clip/nuts)  that are receivers of bolts...........  they are mounted all over the place....

 

 

You see them  holding the electric fans to the radiator    or  even can be see holding  the  wiper wash bottle to a mounting bracket.....

 

 

The ones I am specifically interested in ,   are the ones that hold the electric fans to the radiator.......   1998 subaru outback.....

THEN  a ten mm bolts runs through the plastic frame of the fan to the radiator..... where this  (clip/nut)  allows you to thead into...

the ten mm bolts  THUS,   holding on the radiator  fan to the radiator  securely........

 

 

 WHAT ARE THESE CALLED??????   WHERE DO I GET NEW ONES?    should be able to buy a pack of them...

 

Thanks, MICKY

They are called Speed Nuts. Go to the 80's GM isle at the wrecking yard. They used 6x1.0 speed nuts all over the place.

Yep, speed nuts and most auto parts will have an assortment.

eBay. Keep searching through there till you find the best deal. You can probably get 50 for ten bucks with free shipping.
