    Hi all -

    I am trying to find a certain clip that attaches part of the bumper cover at the lower headlight housing assembly bolt that is covered by the bumper cover. It looks like the bolt for the headlights goes through the clip before you fasten it, and then push the bumper cover into it.

    Sorry if this sounds to confusing. I have circled where this clip would be located on this diagram. Unfortunately, I am not seeing what I am looking for on it.

    That looks like a pretty big piece. The clip looks like it’s independent and not part of something else. I could be wrong of course.

    That piece attaches to the inside of the bumper cover on that top edge you have circled in the diagram. Then it clips to the truck and I think that 10mm bolt

    Ahh gotcha. Thanks! I was having trouble visualizing it until I went out and looked again.

    Yeah it's def. #9. It's a $20 piece of plastic. I bought one because I broke mine.
