    It's a long-shot but does anyone have a spare redline hood strut laying around?

    So I bought a set of redline hood struts from Shelby for my car. The install was easy, however I neglected to lock one of the bottom struts and the retainer clip popped off, landing somewhere in the depths of the engine bay.

    After an hour or so of looking for it I've decided it just isn't going to happen. So I thought there may be a chance that someone has a clip I could rob until the one I ordered gets here via snail mail next week.

    It's a long shot, but hey...you never know! Thanks!
