nunya Posted August 11, 2012 Share Posted August 11, 2012 Those things are annoying. I have like two left while the rest are zip ties. You can't really put zip ties into the corners because of how the sheet metal is welded. just because I had the hood open this morning I had to elaborate as to why this is incorrect not to bring up a 2 week old subject, just though of it when I was staring at my bright red zip ties the things I think of while checking fluids...

tmoore4512 Posted August 12, 2012 Share Posted August 12, 2012 You check your fluids? Jk Hey I snagged a few at the local yard. When I was leaving, I put em on the counter and the guy was like "uhhhh what are these?" I told him, and he was like...."uhmm just give me a dollar so I can get a coke man." Best deal I've gotten in years. Haha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Apparently there is a hole there! I'm pretty sure I did not have one there but I have to check again now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ahardb0dy Posted August 13, 2012 Share Posted August 13, 2012 (edited) TIE WRAPS !!!! Tie wraps are things you find when you just buy a used vehicle !! Come on, do it right, set an example. Here are 2 crappy getting dark out pics of my clips, keep in mind I have to use this type of clip as my aftermarket grille does not have the same holes as a OEM one: screw tight: the clip, they are nice because they have room to move in the rectangle hole, never had a problem with one pulling out: Edited August 13, 2012 by ahardb0dy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AzZo Posted August 13, 2012 Share Posted August 13, 2012 The guy at my local junk yard took one look at the clips I showed him and said no charge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ahardb0dy Posted August 13, 2012 Share Posted August 13, 2012 some junkyards down here if you tell them you need the grille clips they will tell you that you have to buy the whole grille, they don't want to separate any parts, probably why their vehicles are sitting there rusting, I don't bother with the junkyards like that anymore. Like if you want to buy the steering wheel they will say you have to buy the whole column !!! Probably why people just pocket the little stuff.

The_Magicians_Eye Posted August 16, 2012 Share Posted August 16, 2012 i just ziptie mine on it takes 1 min to take it on and off then. Just did this to mine too. And yes I agree it comes off in no time at all and installs pretty damn fast too. Can't complain. I hate those stock clips. Even if they didn't fall apart they're annoying at best.
