Green clips from life jackets?

Hi, does anyone know where I can get a few of these from?

They are the clips that hold the firing mechanism on a lifejacket.

they are visual indicators to indicate if a lifejacket has been used, if I was handed lifejacket without
one I would be checking the bottle to see if it had been used.

They don't affect the use of lifejacket, but at 75p worth having....

The jackets would fail a safety check without them ....

I agree however the £10 delivery charge is a bit steep.
