Door arm rest clips/fasteners

I'm trying to find out what the little metal and rubber clips/fasteners that hold the arm rests on the door panels might be called.  My driver's side arm rest was missing one of these and now, thanks to a mechanic, is now missing two :(    I need to find out what the official name is for them so I can try to find a few.  THANKS!!

They apparently came with two different styles, based on the cars that I have seen. There is a metal wire clip on some and a plastic push on clip on others.Both work equally well. I am sure that I have some of each. I'm out of town till Tuesday, but if you will remind me then, I can check and see what I have.
