ToyoGuy Posted November 18, 2016 Share Posted November 18, 2016 It seems like whenever I shop out front end or front brake work, the flexible splash "cutains" in the front wheel-wells come back missing some of the stock retainers, or worse, in the past have been torn by inexperienced wrenchers trying to remove them. The OEM retainers are kind of a one-way device, unless you squeeze them from the opposite side whilst pulling on the heads to remove them they can be rendered useless quickly. I found a great / easy replacement that's available at most hardware stores in the "misc thinga-majig" section, that has a retractable locking pin action that almost anyone can figure out just by looking at them, and are re-useable. Anyway, "it worked for me", hope it's useful to someone else. BR, TG Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jjrbus Posted November 18, 2016 Share Posted November 18, 2016 My mechanic replaced the OEM ones but the new did not fit well. I used short self tapping screws with washers being careful of lines. Jim Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
