Hi Brent,
A very helpful fellow 289 Register member found me a spare clip so I'm out of the woods for the time being and haven't contacted any of the US suppliers directly. But yes, these things must be made by someone so should be available, the trick is finding out who from!
I've had this centre trim on and off my car for over 10 years so I think the spring steel just failed. Every time the centre is removed to remove the wheel, at least one of the clips goes flying off somewhere. I keep a magnet probe handy every time I do the job!
Roger
