Hood strut clips?
So, I changed my mind once again & went with the hood struts for the '82-'84 fiberglass hood.
I ordered them from AutoZone, they arrived today. The end that hooks to the hood had the install clips pre-installed but there were no clips on the other end or in the package.
I still have the old struts, so I went to take clips off of them when I found that one of them had been replaced before and was much smaller - see the picture. The one on the left is the one I need, the one on the right is the one that is too small. Just wondering if it's possible to find just the clips and if so, where. Thanks.

Re: Hood strut clips?
If Autozone does not have them on one of there spinning parts/fastener racks than you should just have them order you a new set to replace the defective ones you have now.
