Check wrecking yards for a manual cobalt to take the clip from. Or zip tie and tape it back together.

 

i dont think any wrecking yards would have a cobalt...... lol a year ago i went to some looking for parts for a 2000 and they laughed at me

 

Super-Glue?

 

The zip-tie solution may just work if you can get it tight enough.

 

Zip-tie tool at Wal-Mart $10

 

Have you seen all of the wrecked balts just on this site!!! There a a few floating around somewhere. Just call around.

 

Yeah, zip tie it until you can find one. I broke the clip on one side off mine. Total accident, anyway, the zip tie is your friend.

 

Epoxy that thing in place.

 

I'm in the same boat they cant find the damn clip.
