I need one of these 'clip spring things' for an adjustable brace.

Can you buy generic ones that I might be able to cut down and fudge? Do they have a name?

If not, what would I make one out of?

Any ideas?

Some wiper blades have spring steel running along the length which would be perfect for this.
 
Good suggestions.

How would I go about making the small button? It's 5mm by only 2mm high.

Can you get rivets that project by only that much?
