Car question: What do you call these?

[jaded]

Thanks again bro, though that is exactly the part I need, mine is 2001 LS 3.8 V6...this says its fits models 2006+:



I could gamble and see if it fits though

That site let's you check the year and model (which I just did) and it says that it's not compatible but any Chevy dealer (parts dept) should be able to help you.

Try this...send them an email and ask.

I did a search for them and your right, they are hard to locate.

****** question: are you sure they use a "clip"? because I can locate air housing clips for my vehicle. I would indeed, ask the dealer the set up... and maybe take a look and see if a generic clip would do.

I use these guy sometimes... you might call them and ask I did try to search out a 2006 impala and could not find the item, but sometimes they can locate items when called.

Used to have them. I took the car to my mechanic and when I got it back a couple of days later, I noticed they were missing.

They're probably laying somewhere around his shop, but it will be hard to come across them. I'm still gonna head down there to see if I can find them.

Good site, I chose the model and year and went through over 1,000 pieces of hardware looking for it.

Sadly, they weren't there

Not sure what year you need but I saved your pic and noticed it's an Impala...

You know you're probably the most useful poster here right

This guy on ebay sells them. It seems to be compatible with '91 camero 3.8 v6 but no mention of Impalas...there are numerous pages (year/model) with diagrams of parts but contact the seller ("question about item") and give him your details to be sure.

Thanks bro, I'll have to keep looking for it:



Don't fit and doesn't ship to the island

Yeah I searched for them... I would call their customer service. I am assuming your mechanic did not leave you with any, because of you have one, you can match em up to a generic.

Your other option is to measure the lip and assorted parts where the clips attach and buy generics.

I lived in DR for a couple of years...I know how hard it is to get parts in the Islands. I still own a dis-assembled Yamaha down there.

So a simple solution would be to drill a couple of small holes through the plastic and use a couple of wood screws to secure the cover. You make the top hole a little larger so that the screws cut grooves only at the bottom. Problem solved.

Wanted to green K this Jade: There are actually many things one can do to fix this. and this line of action keeps many cars on the road! Take it from a former Air cooled VW Bus owner! And we didn't even have zip ties back then!!! It was duct tape and a prayer.

Personally I would have probably grabbed for the zip ties about now, same concept, tighten as needed in the holes.
