Clock spring plastic tabs broken need help

I broke the two forward facing plastic tabs on the clock spring. Any idea how I can fix this without buying a new clock spring? Is there a plastic piece I can buy at the hardware store and then glue it in place with some jb weld?

Also, since I am installing an aftermarket racing steering wheel with quick release I will no longer have the need for an airbag or horn. My question is what is the purpose of the clock spring and will the steering be fine without any tabs?

The tabs go into the two holes above and below the steering shaft.

I broke the two little tall plastic tabs in the below picture.
