Replaced air filter today and lost a clip that holds the plastic cowing in front of filter housing. Found it easier to replace filter with cowing removed. Can’t find clips on any site.. any ideas. They have ax on top and unscrew. Thanks. A parts # would really help.

Make sure you have the correct Ford part number. Many fasteners look alike but dimension are not correct.
For 2002use these numbers:
  • Radiator Sight Shield Push-Type Retainer
  • Black Nylon
  • Head Diameter: 24.5mm
  • Stem Length: 14mm
  • Fits Into 9mm Hole
  • Replaces Ford: W705957-S300, W706519-S300 Lincoln LS 2000 -

Found that part number W706519 will fit all models, 2002 to 2005. Earlier Ford gave a different number for the 2002.
