So one of the little clips that holds the hood prop rod in place broke off. The clips, to my knowledge these clips are actually part of the piece of plastic cover they are mounted on.

So I'm looking for the part # of this piece. Below is a pic of the piece I'm talking about. The piece with the yellow start on it.


*This picture is not of my car. Just a picture of an engine bay I found on google.

I figure if the price is too much, I'll just go ahead and get some hydraulic lifts for the hood instead.

 

I'd just get the hood struts, a new radiator cover will cost more.

 

Wouldn't that be covered under warranty?

 

Found the part. It is the "Radiator Upper Splash Shield" Part# 8C291

I guess I could try that.
