    My undercarriage plastic cover has taken a toll due to our recent snow storm, and now I left with a broken clip (pic below) the clip seems to be removable by twisting it off . But now that the clip is broken the panels are flapping all over the place at 60 mph and its driving me crazy, and the bolt that holds the clip unfortunately has bended also.

    The clip is located here on the driver it seems to hold one side of the 2 panels together

    Anyone know if the clip's part number? Im having trouble finding it online.

    I have gone to the dealer parts department and had them pull up the exploded diagram and show them the clip in question. They can pull the part number from the diagram. The clips are only about a buck each.

    Up here the damn things are about $5 each. Still, I've found its simplest to just pony up for the dealership's fastener: I've tried 3rd party but it's hard to get the diameter and "grip" right. Plus the quality's all over the map.
