Grill clips

[cj80cruiser]

Does anyone have a link or source for the little snap clips that attach the factory grill back on? Mine are very brittle and have broken too many now.

haha, epic thread... haven't we all. I've learned little zip ties work GREAT!!

Ha. I need to pick up a few too. Those things are a PITA.

Go to the dealer, they're cheap. I just bought a bunch myself, got 6 for 5 bucks or something

I've resorted to zip ties at this point. Work great.

Cheap? That's almost a dollar a piece. All they are are plastic. The price of some items amazes me.

Oh well, I spend more than that on lunch, it doesn't matter to me. I am too obsessed with making things perfect to have it any other way, anyway.

I might actually have a few of them left. I have to search around for them.

Thanks for the part number. Guess I'll use it at my local dealership because shipping is a killer at $9

Currently running on 3 clips and 3 zip ties. Truthfully.. the zip ties seem to hold it closer and tighter than the clips did.

Find somebody parting there truck out....I don't think you can get those metal pieces any other way.

OR.....you'll have to use zipties.

Hey guys, stumbled on this thread while googling around.

I was replacing the headlights on my 1st gen 4Runner when I noticed two of my grill clips were missing. I modeled and 3D printed these new clips and they work great.

Here's how it looks: 1st generation Toyota 4Runner grill clip - Imgur

Here's where to download the STL (3D printer) file: 1st Generation Toyota 4Runner Grill Clip by reed - Thingiverse

Hope somebody finds this useful.
