Overhead Light Clips

1 Attachment(s)

Does anyone know the part number for these clips that hold the overhead light unit (clip circled in attached picture)? Is it even available separately? I'm missing one (not sure how I lost it) and the other remaining one is in bad shape. Thanks.

Doubt those are available separately. Go to a yard and pull a light. Snag the metal clips. Doubt they'd charge you for them, if you even bothered to let them know. Stuff like that I usually just throw in my tool bag.

Alternatively, Ebay has lights up for <$20.

Light modules should be a dozen on eBay too.

I am likewise inclined. Clips, screws, fuses, etc all get tossed in the bag. Part of the $1 admission fee in my eyes. I leave them in there all much of the time so the inspectors see them coming in as well as going out.:D
