In very rare cases there are parts no cars that don't have parts numbers. This could be one of them. I've never heard of anyone wanting these particular zip ties before.

They are not regular zip ties and the reason you can NOT use regular zip ties is there is very little to zip tie the hose to. If you took the time to look at the pictures you would see the slot. The corresponding posts they hook to are built into the floor pan. I don't have a problem making a work around I'm just hopping someone on the list might be more skilled then I at using EKTA.
