No clips on my brake pads? WTF?

[zachattack_5491]

So I changed the pads on my rear disks last night and on the drivers side I noticed the absence of the metal clips to hold the pad in place. One more thing to add to the list of stupid S*** the previous owner did.

Anyways, if I buy new rear calipers will it come with clips? Or can I find a clip by itself somewhere? I have no junkyards around here and no one really close doing a part out.

gotta buy the clips wont come with calipers auto parts stores will have them

well if your buying some sort of upgrade kit for like larger rotors and calipers they will come with clips but if your just buying a refurbished stock caliper it wont have clips with it. unless you go to the dealer and pay a ridiculous amount of money for an entire rear caliper assembly then ya it will have clips.

i would just buy the clips XD
