Retainer clip


How do you remove this clip from the forward most undercarriage splash guard? I searched the forum, google and YouTube already for an answer and couldn't find one. Loosing coolant from that area and need to fix it.

Insert a flat blade screwdriver tip under the vertical tab hanging down from either end. Rock the tool toward the center of the clip and it will release the locking portion of the clip while pulling the end down and out. If the tab is broken off from previous removal, they can be a bit of an aggravation.

they pop right off from either side with a flat head. You can bend them back into shape if they get distorted, but they are also pretty cheap so I bought a few to replace any that break or bend really bad. Once you do one, you'll get how easy it is. :+)
