Pulled the Radio out of my dash for repair
The CD player in my radio has not worked since I purchased my car. I pulled the radio out to send to Doctor Dons for a check-up and repair. Unfortunately, when I was taking the radio cover off, I dropped one of the spring clips that hold the plastic cover to the dash. I think it dropped down along the center console, but am not exactly sure where. I only heard it twang when I pulled the plastic radio cover off. I have not been able to find it or to fish it out with my flexible magnet.
I tried to find another, but, am told the spring clip is no longer available from GM or from any other place I have looked. Does anyone know where I can find the clip (GM part # 10175544). It will be helpful when the radio comes back if I can reassemble the plastic radio cover with the correct spring clip.

Re: Pulled the Radio out of my dash for repair
This is a picture of the clip I need to finish installing the radio cover plate on my dash. The clip is 1-1/2" long, 1/2" wide and the spring is 1/8" deep. I have asked two body shops and they don't have anything like this. The small end has teeth on it and slides into a hole in the plastic cover plate to hold it firm. The large end snaps into a square hole in the dash. I will try Doctor Dons tomorrow. I hope someone has an idea where I can find one.

Re: Pulled the Radio out of my dash for repair
Thanks for pointing that out to me Hammer. That's all I need is another comedian. Maybe you could spare one of the clips in YOUR car.
I can probably get by without the clip, but I would just as soon put both of them in when I put the dash back together. I am hoping that now that I have posted a picture of the remaining one that I have, that someone will possibly have one. The fact that there are none left in inventory where I have looked tells me that it is not uncommon to lose this part back behind the dash. Wish me luck

Re: Pulled the Radio out of my dash for repair
I would think asking Dr. Don if he has one would be your best bet at this point. Again, good luck.

Re: Pulled the Radio out of my dash for repair
short of taking out the console....maybe buy a non-ZR-1 replacement face trim plate and scavenge the clip? I think the places like Ecklers, corvette central and Zip sell the regular trim plates.
Not trying to be a wise guy. Tom
