Default Part number for airbox clip?

Anybody know the part number for the black metal spring clip that holds the factory airbox sealed? I just popped the hood and noticed that I am missing one. Thanks

I looked on there and didn't see it as part of the exploded diagram. I assume there are multiple platforms that use that same style clip.. Hoping someone can chime in. Thanks

It's not available separately from Lexus/Toyota. You have to buy the whole box. I'd go to a Lexus junkyard and see if they will part with one.

Exactly what I was going to say. I bought my F with that same exact clip missing. The dealer tried using a clip from a IS350/250 and its a completely different clip. I had them try to locate me one but they were also told the same thing (you have to buy the whole air box). I eventually found some one selling a used OEM airbox off of their F on ebay and had the dealer buy it and send me the clip.

I had the same issue, missing a tighten clip on the air box. I replaced the half air box instead since the plastic that holds clip is damaged and it's no use just adding a clip onto the box. You should check the air box to see if the plastic part that holds the clip has damaged/loosen. If the plastic part that holds the clip is fine, I have extra clip available if you want it.

Zen - I will take a look later today. I don't recall seeing any plastic that looked broken but I'll double check. Otherwise I will gladly take that clip from you. Pm me and I can send you my information and paypal info.
