Default need 2 front brake retainers

I am finally going to be putting on my A8/TT brake conversion but i need to get 2 new brake retainers <---- I think thats what they are called.

they are the bend wire that is on the front of the front brake calipers and hold it on the caliber carrier.

any ideas were i can find these? besides the stealership? and what is the proper name for them?
