Clips are easily replaceable parts, flexible or worked by a spring, to help lightly hold one part or assemble one part to another. Some types of clips are very uniquely built for their purpose and must be purchased from the OEM/Manufacturer. Other clips look identical to those you might find in a hardware store. We always suggest purchasing replacement clips from a genuine OEM original parts dealer, like us, to ensure they fit exactly as intended for safe operation by the OEM.
