Those #%&@ engine cover clips!!!
I wind up breaking 2 outta 3 everytime. I've looked at the manual and some of the posts on here, not much luck... any special tricks to reusing them?

I've had trouble with them too. The easiest way to put them back in is to spread out the two side parts and push the middle back up so the button pops out. Then stick the clip in and push the middle button in until it clicks.

While placing an order I bought 6 from Sewell to have on hand because I kept screwing them up too.I now know the best technique for me.I switched out the '06 type for the newer type.
I use a small screwdriver to pry up the middle rather than push down.Works for me.I do have 6 on hand just in case.

ya they are a PIA every time you need to adjust things or install bulbs, i had enough of them when i was leveling my HID, now i got to deal with them again tomorrow when i install the joe z. Just take your time, i used a flat head or just lift one of the 3 hingy things and push down on the ground to pop the middle piece out. havent broke one yet . nock on wood.
