Anyone out there changed their fuel tank and know where to get the three plastic clips that hold the fuel lines on top of the tank from? Tried dealers and real oem doesn't show them![/img]

If they're not listed in the ETK, then they are part of the tank, and the only place you'll get them is from an old tank. If they are partly broken, then small cable ties help.

Ah, I thought that might be the case, thanks.
Unfortunately I've managed to lose one, break one and one is in excellent condition! If anyone has an old tank with one or two going spare I'd swap a beer or two for them winkeye
