Engine Shroud - spacial nut

Is this part the "clip" around the holes where you bolt the shroud to the fan housing - 999-591-592-40-OEM

Call it a special nut. Looks the part, just want to make sure.

Those "special nuts" accept a sheet metal screw. The nuts clip into the fan shroud. There are plug wire separaters (for lack of a better word) and those special nuts hold those separaters in place on the shroud. If you look up the pn it says they are for an 84 to 89 so i'm not sure if they'll work on your 81 SC.

Hmmm, yeah don't think that's what I need. It's more of a "d clip washer" kind of thing. Back to the drawing board.

I used these:

McMaster-Carr

Not factory, but they worked.
