1995 C36 brakes

Hi I am new to the c36 world. I previously owned a 98 c43 and enjoyed it so much I bought a 1995 c36 AMG a few months ago after a few years hiatus from the w202 world. My car needs new brakes and has the one year only four piston amg front calipers for 95' and I need to do pads and rotors soon. I have sourced everything except the caliper retaining clips for the front. Does anyone have any advice or sources on where to acquire these?? I am scratching my head as only the rears seem to be available and my fronts are rusty and I know will need replaced when I do them thank you

Am also trying to acquire some monoblocks haha

Looking at the photo, the bottom retaining pin goes behind the spring clip. Did you find/do it like that, or did you just place it temporarily there to take the photo? Normally, the spring clip is in front of the pin.

BTW the spring clip can be cleaned if a bit rusty (they always do) so if its surface rust I would just clean and put some high temp paint on them and job done. If not broken, why change...

They look identical to the clips on my C43.
