I need to replace some missing clips which should be holding the glass in
place on my scanner. I think they are known as Starlock clips or washers
but they aren't the same as shakeproof washers. They look like washers
with 6 springy fingers on the inside which grip the outside of a 3/16 in
dia. round pin. There's a picture at http://milibyte.co.uk/clip.jpg. I
only need 3 and the only source I can find so far is RS (part no. 172-436)
who sell them in bags of 50 and have a 5 quid delivery charge.

I don't mind getting a bag of 50 if I have to but the extra fiver for
something that can be just dropped into an envelope and sent by post is a
bit OTT for this job. Anybody know where I can get these or something
similar in small numbers without having to pay high delivery costs?
