Default Fuel Rail cover question-- quickie!

Anybody know where to buy those little black clips that are used to secure the throttle body cable to the top of the drivers side fuel rails?

Are they a "gotta go to the GM garage" item?


Cars a 92 btw.


Thanks!

I bought some from one of the discount GM parts places a couple years ago.

You could put a black zip-tie around the cable and connect it under the FR cover. It would look as nice as stock with the only downside being you'd have to cut the zip-tie whenever you want to separate the cable from the cover.

Default I just ordered some from my local dealer $4.00

I think I paid $4.45 for the pair... I actually negotiated with the manager of the parts deparment?! I got new fuel rail covers and such for a 35% discount. I just told them the parts were a very optional purchase for me... they discount the parts!? Kind of cool. I never thought about negotiating in the parts dept just on the showroom floor.

I can't remember what I paid, but the GM description is CLIP, ACCE. The part number is 10054847. There are two pieces per pack.
