Rep Power: 0 Post-Installation ... Missing Clips
Hi all - just installed a new stereo system in my '05 Civic (JVC HDR59 head unit, Alpine rear / Polk front speakers -- Bazooka sub [no comments - i'm not into hip-hop] coming next weekend). All went well, but a few (3 total, out of 20 or so) of the small metal clips that hold in the A/C console unit fell back into the dash. Everything still seems secure, but since i have to tear it open again to install the subwoofer next weekend, I was hoping to replace the missing clips -- but i can't find them anywhere. Searches online to no avail. They're metal, shaped like a bent U, and attach to plastic trim panels and clip into other panels. Any ideas? Thanks for the help.
I have a Gen 7 2005 Civic "value" (ugh). Automatic tranny.
Thanks, Sean

Yea you need to go to the dealer, I hate them things if your not super carful you lose them, and even if you are you still lose them.
