Clip, Clip, who's got a Clip?

[Clintster11]

Hoping somebody can help me out here. Installed a set of Mirror Extenders on my '06 yesterday, quite the pain BTW, but I now can see behind me with my Heli Bars. Got it all back together and the 3mm allen bolt on the right most fairing wouldn't screw into the housing. Took it all apart and looks like there is a clip missing that connects to the end of the lower plastic tab that allows the bolt to thread into for final assembly. Was super careful when I took everything apart, but obviously not careful enough. Was hoping somebody can hook me up if they have some extra's, happy to pay, or if there is a simple way to order somewhere.

Any and all help appreciated!!

Those things are typically common parts in the automotive industry. Lowes and menards carry stuff like that, as should a good auto parts store. Otherwise search for the part on the microfiche. Yamaha has a good parts finder, get the part number and google it.

Funny, I have the same exact need on my '06. I'll have to get one myself when I get around to it. Good idea to get extra bunch of fasteners for the rest of the body panels while you're at it as they will get sucked into the black hole, Ha

Hey Clinster,

I was just riding through your state the past 2 weekends on 85, 94, 44, 101, etc. So much better than 395, 2. Great weather and scenery!

I got one at an auto parts store..

That's the kind of extra thing I toss onto an order for tires, filters, whatever on a regular basis. Spring nuts. Plastic washers for body panel screws. Body panel screws. Plastic rivets.

You get the idea, good idea to have some stuff tucked away in a fishing lure compartment-style box with part #'s.

I've lost that before, found mine inside the lower fairing at the bottom. Good luck,

I believe it's called a Tinnerman nut. You can get them a Lowe's or Home Depot or your local hardwareologist.

They also call them Speed or Spring Nuts - that's how Home Depot and Lowes lists them.
