Help - Parking Cable Retainer Clip

I am trying to find the parking brake cable retainer clips that holds the parking brake cable into the parking brake lever. See the pic below.
I tried NAPA and they said they could not get them.

Thanks in advance,
C. D. Hunter

Dodge part number ~ 4713 293

NOTE ~ The above part number is from the August, 1992 Dodge part book. Said number may have been superseded since.

Hope this helps.

I had this same problem. I fashioned a retainer with baling wire that's holding so far. Let us know if the PN is good and I can get a couple for my next brake job.

I have looked and looked for those doodads. Mine are long gone and they don't show on the dealers blow-up diagram. Thanks for the P/N! Let us know if it works.

If you are meaning the little gizmos that hold the cable in the lever, new ones come with new cables.

At least every one I have ever installed did.

That little folded flat piece would be a simple task to make.

P/N - 04713293 that BC847 posted is the right critter. They cost $3.37 apiece. So if you want to order some you should do it now, because the person I ordered them from said that once they run out of the ones that are in the parts system they are gone.

A big thank you to all of you that responded to my question!

Now to see if the dealer has any clue. I will post my results from here in the over priced, over taxed Northeast.
