pancover pins
I just did my first oil change (200 miles - New Mobile1 0w-30). Of course, I messed up one of the little plastic pin/clips. Where does one get them (other than the dealer)? And what are they called to do a search for them?
Thanks

Pancover Oins
Hi
Have a o4 XT I also chg my oil myself. The Pins are a ***** the first time or two. There was a Post on Edmunds long ago that gave photos etc. and a few
tricks as to removal etc. It was in the Turbo page as I recall. You could put "Oil Chg" in their search window and dig it out.
Luck, deadeye

Honestly, those clips are not really expensive from the dealer. I would just save the trouble of going to different parts stores and trying to find the right one and go through subaru parts. Is the cover hanging to where it would get snagged? If the others are still intact, they do a good job of still holding it up properly.

I barfed one before I learned how they were removed.
It's ok for now, I just wanted to know what to ask for (or if there is a substitute)and where they are purchased (if other than the dealer).
There is no close dealer to me but I will go and get some to have.
