  I have replaced them by making rivets. Pretty easy to do actually. Purchase rivets (soft steel) that are the correct diameter. Cut to length, about 3/16" protruding past clip. Then, with back of rivet braced against something solid (vise?) hammer the end that's protruding around the perimeter. It'll peen over easily. After you have done one, you'll be a master.
