wiper and headlight plastic clip replacement

I was wondering if anyone has found a place that makes replacement plastic clips for the ball connectors found on the headlight and wiper linkages?

some guys were using rubber grommetts for headlight rod bushings.. mazda only sells them with a new headlight rod. the new rod works great and lasts 15+ years...

I found that placing about 5-6 medium size zip ties in the holes helps. Cut off the excess obviously.
