fuel filter tabs/clips

[captnemo17]

I recenty changed my fuel filter and broke the plastic (gas tank side) locking clip. Ford told me I had to buy the entire fuel line to just replace the plastic clip. B.S.!!! Most fuel filters do not come with the clips but I found a filter that does.
the manufacture name is PARTS+PLUS.. www.partsplus.com

I hope this helps the guy that runs into the same problem i did..

A lot of Wix fuel filters come with locking clips, the older type. Pictures of the "broken" line and of the replacement clips would have been nice. As they say, a picture is worth a thousand words.
