Clutch line retainer clip alternative
A Volkswagen clip is apparently identical to the Ford clip.
But unlike the Ford clip which is only available if you buy the complete line, the VW clip has its own part # and is available separately.
Part # is 7M 072 1431
I bought this one on eBay for $9.99 shipped

You can get it for less than that from a local dealer or online:

If you're gonna order from this ^^^ place, I'd say to call them up and ask them to just tape it to a piece of paper and put it in a regular envelope, since their cheapest shipping option seems to be $12.95 otherwise
In the pic below, I have the Ford clip on the left, VW clip on the right, both photographed next to a razor blade for size reference:
