Are these the clips for the top of the grille? http://www.ebay.com/itm/Nissan-Grille-Clips-25-Pieces-Per-Pack-62318-01WOO-/200840326544?pt=Motors_Car_Truck_Parts_Accessories&hash=item2ec3042d90&vxp=mtr

 

Top of the grille as in where it mounts to the headlights? I think they're supposed to be square shaped. At least mine are.

 

And the center mount to the hood release mechanism.

haha zip tie is the way to go. it makes the grill so much tighter. mine was all lose. then i lost one of the clips and been zip tied ever since. no one can see the zip tie. just you will know its there.

 

no zip tie, just trying to find the right clips. someone help me out

 

Go to Nissan, they can get them for like $5 each..

Or use two $0.01 zip ties like the rest of us.

 

try this

yes, i know its on courtesy nissan, but out of the 4 which one is the right one?

 

Just use zip ties like TS said. It holds it tighter anyways

 

You need 2 of the 62300e

 

Ok guys, i'm not using ZIP TIES.

 

i hear you on the zip ties, they look cheesy and cheap. they're fine on wiring or a loose hose. but on the grill you want the snap on screws. just ask the dealer to show you one, theirs gotta be 6 or more that are almost the same, but different by color or length or style.

 

If you dont think zip ties are cool.....you havent been working on cars long enough. Eff those clips that break every time you look at them but if you want to fiddle with them thats your choice. I've removed about 20 of those grilles and there is no saving them, especially the hood latch mount

 

I had my 96 max since 1998. I had these car for 15 years, so ^ the last post is just so stupid. i don't use zip ties bc its lazy and ghetto!!!!!!!!! sorry i don't want zip ties every where on the car.

 

Zip ties are not ghetto.. :rollseyes:

There's a reason why people use them on the grill

*way cheaper
*easier to find and replace


I've removed my grill countless times. Lets say 15 times and I've spent $1 on zip ties.

Now those garbage clips break by looking at them wrong, so yeah they are probably going to be toast once you get them out..and you need 2 of them. So 15x2clipsx$3.50/each = $105 on grill clips in 8 years

 

c'mon brad, seriously? who needs to remove their grill that often?? i mean, in over 8 years of ownership on my 95, even when i did the retro's i only broke 2 of them cause they were dried up and crusty. i've only bought 2 grill clips in all that time, you guys are rushing or have no patience. or maybe cheep??

 

I did the mesh grill on the old car, ended up removing the grill 2-3 times for that (having to add adhesive to the mesh after it came loose)

I've went through 3 grilles on the white car
When the original grill was painted black, I took it off and touched it up every few months
Then I painted the vertical bars white.
Then I swapped in the white SE gtill

And I've swapped headlights twice

So a grill has been removed a good 10-15 times since

 

lol. I use zip ties to aim my headlights at the moment. Broken foot is preventing me from a Junk yard run for some new housing bevels for the lights. ZIP TIES FTW!
