What part holds up the kick panel

[jhaurimn]

Other than the 3 90 degree screws at the top, what part is needed to hold the side near your feet/pedals? Looks like there is a spot for a rivet but I can't find a part number.

The kick panel I'm talking about is part 8

Anyone know?

There's a bracket clipped on the steering column:

There's also a 4th screw, into the steering column, and also another clip on the left side similar to the one shown above. At least on non- airbag cars.

The left side clip is actually 3 tabs welded to the body. I find it easiest to start with that one then once its started slide the one on the steering up in place. Trying to get them both at the same time is a PITA.

This clip doesn't seem to be available? No part number?

Is it #13 in the original RealOEM link?

I'd order through your local dealership as shipping will cost more than the part itself. Just snaps on the steering column.

There's also this clip on the right side. Mine is MIA. Does anyone know the part number?

I literally thought my account was hacked when I checked my recent posts and saw this at the top. Then I realized I made this thread 3 years ago.
