I don't think that was plastic.   It is one of those items you can't BUY (easily from your chair with a credit card)!

You are going to need to find a used one.  I'm sure someone here has one.

Martin - maybe you can post a picture showing where the clip goes as well as what trans, when and where your car was built. Many of the clips on the firewall are different depending on where your car was built


You'll find that adding your cars info to your signature can save allot of time - or your going to be answering the request for when and where in almost every post ;)

     The photos posted by Wade 429 very clearly show two different clips.  One for the speedo and one for the 4 speed reverse wire harness.  Are these two plastic clips correct ?  Where to get them ?  Brian

The one shown in the very last picture (deadnutson pic) at the bottom is different depending on when and where the car was assembled

Of course this is showing a manual transmission application ;)

I have looked around the Deadnuts site and cannot find these pictures.  What car did these photos come from ?  Not from a 69 SCJ Mustang.  Brian

Just guessing but remembering what Jack has taken pictures of and shared with me in the past I would guess its a 69 Dearborn GT500

Thanks Jeff; some of the stuff in there doesn't look familiar.  No shock tower reinforcement.  Maybe a 350 or a small block 69 ?  Brian

Correct - didn't look at the pictures carefully enough.

Its a spring 69 Dearborn Boss 302 - if that relates to the OP need or car
