Restoration / Muncie Speedo Cable Clips

Who has the best repro Muncie speedo cable clips?
Ordered some from Classic and they're not even close. Had to use a 3/8 steel pin to form the new one and get a comparable curvature to the original. Heartbeat is on back order for theirs and the photo doesn't provide a good view to compare. It's a stamped steel clip for cryin out loud. How hard can it be to COPY an original?
I only have one original left from the firewall as they they "lost" the ones in the tunnel. The gorillas at the body shop trashed the tabs when they removed it. Hardened steel only has a couple iterations of bending and it fractures. So I can't even use my remaining clip where it originally was installed.
As always, any info is appreciated.
