Anybody know where I can get the spring steel clips that mount to the drivers side frame to hold the rear light harness? There is like 3 of them held into the frame by self tapping bolts that hold the wire harness to the frame. I will get a pic of my broken ones I want to replace.

I know exactly what you are talking about...These would probably be your easiest route to go as far as replacement:

Vinly Coated Loop Clamps (I can't link directly to it, so just select it from the list the link goes to).

I do to, also you could go to a junkyard that has a chassis without a body and get them.

Ah, those clips. I think I have a few of those from other GM products. My harness was hanging off the frame also, but I don't think there were clips there, I just zip tied it up there. I also thought that harness was for the power tailgate... lighting wires must be in there too I guess.

Like I said, I think I have some of those clips. What's this about mudflaps? I've got a pair of those old ones that say "Back Off".

I found a good deal on eBay on Dee-Zee mud flaps for 13 bucks a pair shipped. Large size.

I went to Home Depot today to look for plastic flexible plastic sheeting. The closest I could find was 4" wide rain gutter shielding about 3 foot long. I have to trim the hook edge off it to make a nice flat piece to use to seal the rear wheel well rotted joints instead of using sheet metal. Plastic don't rust. :33:

I was thinking about wheelwells out of trailer fenders.
