just run without them. i leave mine off and just the covers on. way easier to get under the hood. They won't fly away or rattle without the clips.

Get this then: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/20-Gr...aaea0fc98#shId

I ordered them and they were perfect, I got like 10 left. The eBay link sells 20 of them for like $13 USD with shipping to Ireland, just a long wait though.

Oh, and please tell how, if you did it yourself, paint your engine covers!
