Where can I get this wire-tie-clip thing ?

(Preferably real store)
Local AutoZone does not have it.

Also where can I buy Honda/Acura clips and fasteners ?
(broke several)

Thanks

Hmmm, looks like that might be a dealer only part.

It's not. It's a standard piece sold by lots of companies.

Google for:
cable ties
zip ties
nylon ties

Just one example:

For other clips and fasteners:

Radio Shack, Micro Center, CompUSA, Home Depot, Lowe's, to name a few.
Even saw then at Best Buy.  Or you can drop by my house, I've got
hundreds of them in my junk box.  

It is nothing more than a standard wire/cable tie used in all sorts of
eletronic/electrical work.  Open your PC and you will see a number of
them.

It's the "push" part that is unusual. TeGGeR's Panduit link showed some of
those (a few sizes). Most electrical supply stores carry Panduit - the same
company makes the plastic channels that enclose telephone wire if it has to
come down the wall - but the push mount type may be special order.

Hmmm, I rarely see them with that exact push-in clip, but I must be
missing something :).  The non-clip types are indeed common as can be.

I don't know about other cars, but in my Acura they're everywhere
harnesses go,  to tie down harnesses. so I thought this'd be somewhat
"common" -
apparently it not.

It's common, but only in certain industries. You need to go to the
suppliers for those industries to get them.

well I guess it's not common in American-made cars at least....I mean
otherwise AutoZone would have them in stock.
