Thanks, Doug. Nice view of those clips, and the shape of them.
I will try and see if they might be available as a replacement part…..
I’m contemplating fabricating something in the clip line for it, otherwise.
Or a concealed box as Glenn says.
By the way, the back of that delete plate. It looks amazingly caked up with something.
Was the truck used in a sorghum mill? 😉
