Searching for a clip/fastener

Ok, this may be pointless, but I am desperatly searching for this one tiny clip. It is the tiny white round one that goes on that bar that raises\lowers the headlights on my 88. I have tried so many different workarounds but to no avail. I have to keep my drivers side light zip tied to the rad support I'm just looking for maybe some obscure website or something that i could find it at.

Just replace the whole rod. The new rod (or junkyard one if you are cheap) comes with the bushing that you want.

Yea I know, but I can't find anyone local who has em', and the only junkyard with an RX7 within 50 miles was already raped for parts. I found that rod in the car, but it only has the one clip... Anywhere online that has em? I saw one on ebay a while ago, but it's long gone.

Mazda does not sell the bushing seperately.
You need to buy the whole rod.
I had to replace one of mine. :P
