Pet Carrier Clips

I have a pet carrier that is made up of two shells, upper and lower. They are held together with clips that twist (or turn) to lock in place. I need some replacements for missing clips. Any ideas? I have attached the pic below. Thanks in advance.

    Just in case always have some zip ties in your tool box, very handy to have, just like duct tape.

    DowntheRoad that will do the trick! Thanks very much to you and everyone for the quick responses. I will be going to the border soon and will order some up. All the suggestions are good ones.

    I would seek out the maker. If they don't supply parts direct they know who will.

    I used zip ties to secure it and they are still on today and have held up even better than the original equipment.

    Exactly. Those zip or wire ties, available at any big box home improvement store or hardware store have held my two crates together for years
