I'm not sure if this has anywhere else to live, so I'm posting here.

I bought an in-car DAB radio a while back. It's a portable thing, with a suction windscreen mount and internal antenna. The kit came with a small bag of self-adhesive cable clips designed to stick to the windscreen and hold the various cables in place. All I know is they're made by 3M, but I can't locate them anywhere.

I had to have my windscreen replaced due to a crack, and I've been on the lookout for suitable clips to use instead. Here's what the current clips look like:




Any ideas where I might find that sort of clip, or similar?

Cheers.

You could try some cable tie bases, like:

It might not look quite as nice as the original, but it'll certainly do the job.
Alternatively, you could just scrape the old sticky stuff off the clips you've got, and put on some fresh 2 sided sticky pads, cut to shape?

I would reuse the old clips, but I've got two. I need about half a dozen.

Thanks for the link. I might have to go with that idea if I can't find anything more unobtrusive.

or you could use 'no nails' adhesive on the old holders …

Maplin also sell 'em if you need 'em quickly, but in ridiculous amounts :

Thanks, Ernie.

Sadly, they're about twice the size I want. I'm looking as something smaller than 20mm square. As you can see, the remaining clip I have with adhesive is <9mm by <15mm. They're unobtrusive and don't obscure vision on the screen.

I'm amazed I can't find anything remotely similar. You'd have thought the type I already have would be readily available from ICE and mobile comms companies.

clicky

They're white, but otherwise they look about right? Pack of 50 so should last for several cars / windscreens

Bingo!

Thanks Jason!

I guess Heather could paint them black if they are too obvious in the car.

Could I just take a moment to say that for an amateur photographer, the photos in the OP are pretty shoddy!

I can't see the ruler clear enough, and not all of the clip is in focus. A 4/10 at best I'm afraid.

I blame the camera.
