Surely you dont need a pic of this.....:confused:
It's the two large plastic clips that hold the top radiator hose tightly against the top of the upper fan shroud |

As you wish, I guess it will keep until the next time I'm under the hood. I was just trying to expedite for you.

Tomp , it is hard to tell you. But you need a tiny screw driver to compress the little tab from the top end of the clamp . The area you compress is inside the bottom end of clamp . When you compress the tab it will unhook itself from the bottom half of tab. Hope this helps. doug

Let me try to make it more straight forward. Ultimately the top half of clamp pulls out of the bottom half of clamp when the tab thingy is compressed.

buy a new one ,50% of the time they can be reused . I just clip them off and change the hose and install a new one ,faster and less frustrateing .
