Looking at the part diagrams it doesn't list that as a separate part, from what I can see:

Might have to see if anyone on the forum has spares?

Interesting...the instructions I saw said to always replace the clips with new ones, since they're "cheap and easy to find". Well, I've been unable to find them. :)

Maybe I'll be able to reuse the once that I remove. Just figured I'd put new ones on, if I could.

Thanks for your help. :cheers:

I imagine the reason to replace would be if they loosen over time, I wouldn't worry about steel retaining clips on a plastic assembly being damaged or fatigued.

If they're a bit loose, I'd just gently tighten them with pliers. I've done that with spark plug leads and other similar stamped bits that need to be tight before, with great success.

Thanks, S50Sinner

Turns out the design on my car was slightly different. It didn't have the metal clips.
