I'm looking the removable part of the clip that holds the connector
for the cam position sensor in place...I've dropped mine somewhere,
and despite an extensive search and a strong magnet...it's gone.
Presumably some un-accessale part of the car is hiding it. It's sort
of square-ish, maybe an inch to 1.5",  with a big slot to fit the
connector...

If someone's junking an 850 and could send me a clip for a reasonable
price, e-mail me.

OK, so I'm cheap...The dealer is 30 miles away....60 miles round
trip...25 MPG.. 2.4 gallons at a current $2.75 +/-... $6.60 Plus the
part, don't know the cost, but say $5. Plus lost time ( I'm
self-employed) 1.5 hours x $50 ( I said I was cheap! ;-p)  $75

So to go get a new clip, $86.50.

So say $5.00, plus a stamp at $.37...OK I'll splurge, $6??? and it's
delivered to my door? Maybe I'm not cheap after all!

Sooooo.... anyone have that little steel clip they'd like to sell?

email me at ron.dame@att.net

Can't you just have the dealer mail or FedEx it to you?- put in on a
credit card?

Cheap and Easy is a paper clip and a pair of needle-nose pliers!  ;-)

Izzit better than the duct tape I'm using now? Can I re-use the duct
tape so I'm not wasting anything? ;-P
