Default peg clips for engine shroud cover

does anyone know if the plastic peg clips used to fasten the plastic engine shroud covers can be reused ,or if new clips are needed. If so, where can I get new ones, as the one I removed is loose. Thanks

They are reusable. You have to "reset" them and then reinsert and they snap. You will probably have to get someone to show you how to reset, as I can never remember, and have to get a tech to show me every time.

The peg clips I use are 'resetable' .. There is an inner peg inside the outer ring. I use a small flat head and pull up on the inner portion and then it is 'ready' to go in. I pop it in, and push down and it is solid. Removing it I do the same process. Though I could pry it completely from the edge.. I think prying the center portion is proper if you can't access beneath it.
