I'm looking for a source of plastic clips to hold some sockets to steel panels. I have seen these used in electronic equipment but don't know what they are called to even do meaningful searches.
Here's a picture of the sort of thing I'm after:
It needs to go through a 3.2mm hole. The 2 pieces total 4mm in thickness.
Does anyone know where I can purchase these in quantities of about 1000 or more at a time?

Look at the following in the Mouser catalog: 561-CIN01 (pg 1418),
