Door lock rod guide clips?

Anyone know where you might find the plastic "J" clips (for lack of better description) that the door lock rod is guided by?

This pushes into the door about half way on the door lock rod and the rod simply sits in it more or less to hold it up while the door panel is off and there is nothing there to support it.

I can find any number of the plastic clips that actually attaches the lock rod to the lock assembly and whatnot, just not that guide clip.

Thanks in advance.

Get a pair of the clip on plastic guides from an 87-92. The J clip went obsolete after 86.

Does anyone happen to have part numbers for the 87-92 clips as suggested? I'm having a hard time finding the guide clips.

The clips that attach the rods to whatever mechanism they work seem to be easy to come across.

Thanks

#82 is the early hook. #20 is the other clip. The 87 up version supports both rods, so #82 isn't needed.
