Default Clamp that hold the lid on?

Hey, is there anyone out there that can tell me where I can find a replacement for one of the clamps that hold the air lid on?

All I can say is look for a ruined F-body at a scrap yard, I haven't seen any available online or in stores.

I have two extras. If you pay shipping tonight I will just give you one. I am shipping other parts tomorrow so I can send it at the same time.

Seeing you don't take the lid off very often. When i would get on it and come back and check under hood one would almost always be unclipped from my SLP top cover lid. Easy fix drilled and tapped for a very small screw into clip and into filter box no problem and you don't even notice they are there.Sorry i guess you need the clamp not a fix for it popping off the top lid cover.Unless that is how you some how lost it.
