Default Where to buy zipties for motor mount inserts?

You know those square ended zip ties you get with Energy suspension motor mount inserts? Well mine broke and they always slip out of the mounts. i went to Home Depot and i couldn't find anything that would work in it's place. Anyone know where I can get the same zipties?

You can get them at a Napa Auto Part Store. They are better known to the Napa guys as "Transmission cooler/fan ties".. $4.99 for a pack of 4

sounds a little foolish of me, but I had the same thing happen with my energy suspension inserts, broke the first week I had the new motor in. I just used long, thin bolts that fit through the holes, and haven't had a single problem since!

I did the same after I also broke mine. I would also recomend using large flat washers with the bolts to help hold the inserts in place.
