If they're the type where you press down on a curved piece of the clip
and slip the wire through a small hoop in the center of the bottom
piece, then release - that would be called a Fahnestock clip I
believe. Here's a shot of one

If that's the critter, there are plenty of sources including AES.
Alltronics sells the double/back-to-back versions.
