Turn Signal Loom to Steering Column

Why is this? I have sent several of my condensers (which, admittedly are a bit smaller than these clamps) to Australia and New Zealand from Minnesota. Each time, it was less than $20 USD and got there in 5-8 business days. I used USPS First Class Mail. I don't know what they charge for shipping in the US, but even if that is high, you should be able to get it done for less than $50. I'll look into it if you want.

I'll bet they are using one of the "commercial" carriers. I have hardly ever found a case where the USPS doesn't beat them, hands down.

Yep, its a "commercial carrier". I note there is a more expensive option if I want it faster! A padded bag and USPS camel train over the Andes would have been the cheapest option.

I should say that I worked in logistics for some decades before recent retirement.

Thanks for the offer to look into it, it's very kind of you but I'll pass.

Sometimes this comes up. It's part and parcel (no pun intended) of having an old Ford down under. Cheers gents.
 
I'm no expert here but you might want to try your local bicycle shop. They carry clips that hold brake lines to the bicycle frame. I'm not sure if they carry the size you need. Give it a shot you may find the clips your looking for.
 
Update: the CMW clips are out of stock. National Parts Depot, npdlink.com has them in stock for $3.95 each with $9 shipping for two. I talked with someone in the NC store who gave me approximate dimensions of 1-3/8" across the clip, 1-1/2" diagonally across the clip, and 7/16 to 1/2" for the wire section. My column is 1-1/2" diameter and the wire loom is a tad over 5/8". Looks like it might work. Russcc: is Ray separate from RI Wiring? Thank you all for the help.
