#1: Where to get engine cover clips? Author: trackgti, Location: WiltshirePosted: Sat Sep 24, 2011 11:45 am ---- Just wondered whether there's anyone online that sells the 6 black engine cover clips that seem to shear off for a 138bhp GTI, I was amazed to see no-one on ebay has them.
When I got the car it only had one fitted (the rest snapped off) and someone had wedged some cardboard in a gap with some tape to hold the cover on! Until I can get some clips it'll be staying off.

Author: Dutch-HDi, Location: West MidlandsPosted: Sat Sep 24, 2011 1:02 pm ---- I certainly appreciate that the clips are for two different engines and the parts may even be a different part # but it’s the principal to adapt a bad design still may have some benefit or just buy loads to have as spares for future use

HDi are twist on s***ty things, the GTi ones are the same as on the fuse box
