I removed, cleaned up and reinstalled heater box in the pumpkin (70) got the cable into barrel nut and tightened now that dam clip that holds the cable in place I can't get it snapped on. Any ideas, thoughts??????

Thanks

????

that is the clip but it is under the heater box and a b---h to get to

I use a pair of kneedlenose and a tiny screwdriver.

ooops heater blower box. For some reason i can not attach pic of where the clip goes

Going through the same issue.
I get it to go on using needle nose and screwdriver but as I try to install heater box it keeps coming off.
Just ordered new retainer clips, hopefully they will stay on during instalation of Box.

Talk about an oxymoron "Fast Clamp - Porsche (901-571-919-00)"

Ordered mine from Sierra Madre Collection. A little more expensive, $4.75 each, ordered a couple extra just in case I break one trying to get it on.

Got the new clips today. Worked well stayed in place but air box installation was still a PITA. Thanks to Ian's tips it went a little smoother. Click to view attachment

Ordered mine from pelican, they arrive today. Hopefully it will go on somewhat easier as box is installed already.

Yep. Not fun. Glad the video helped you. Adding it here so anyone watching this thread in the future has it handy...

Unfortunately, I couldn't get a camera in position to show how the clips go, but it's pretty self explanatory. The last one pretty much needs to be done by feel unless all the cables are out of the car.
