Default clips

hey guys i was just picking up my little brothers from school like i always do. but this clueless mom in front of me was trying to pull away from the curb and talking on the phone. she didnt know i was behind her and hit me very lightly but it was enough to break the passenger side plastic clip that you screw off right next to the tire. so where can i find this piece. can i go to like an autozone, or a honda dealership. i dont want them to install it because everytime i let the dealership fix my car it doesnt get fixed.

Not exactly sure what you're talking about, but chances are you're not going to find Honda specific parts at most auto stores. I'd say the stealership is your best bet. And if they EVER tell you that just because you bought the parts there, that they have to install them, tell 'em to eat it

You might get lucky and find it at an autoparts store. I'd call around and/or check online. Dealers also carry a lot of stuff like that, and I've never had a dealer give me a problem about buying parts from them. In fact, every dealer I've ever been to has a parts counter you can just walk up to for parts. I've even gotten FREE parts when it was something tiny like a clip. A local dealer oncegave me several washers for my oil drain plug without charging me. The local hardware store wouldn't even do that. I'd only use the dealer as a last resort for something major though. Ebay is just too cheap. I recently got aused Civic hood with matching paint in good shape for $25US, and new 15x8 rims for my Jeep at $35/each. Thedealers would have been at least 5x that.
