Does anyone know what these are called, or whether there are any replacements around? I have a couple of broken ones. They expand around the cone-shaped ends of the spikes on the rear of A77's front plate, then clip back to retain the front plate on the chassis.

Is it items 15 & 16 ?

The very things, David! The collar stops the four clips from springing out too far, and the cone can still clip under the lip, rather like a 1/4" plug.

Is this what you are looking for?

Thank you Michael - yes, that's it. I'd hoped they existed as a generic part as a tenner a clip from the USA is a little frustrating!
