Ugh. Sorry to hear it. Any idea what caused the tabs to break? Any advice for us future owners as to how we can hopefully avoid this happening?

I see you got the Clark Griswold inspired Christmas lights going on. Sorry no helpful input on the broken tabs.

In the interim, could you Gorilla glue the tabs back on? Just to get it re-attached and leave it alone, until you can find a long-term solution?

One of the Broncos at a test drive event I attended, had the same problem. I would think warranty should cover that.

I did something similar. This is the fix I came up with.

I am sorry. I’m trying to figure this out. Tabs broke off…how did you attach to the top too the wire?

I drilled small holes in both parts above and below the slots where the tabs hooked in and then threaded the wire through the holes.

this is absolute bullshit for Ford to allow these plastic clips to hold this piece on. My hand barely slipped and caught the same spot on mine and the same thing happened! You can’t even replace the clips!!!
