The only thing more interesting than removing the snap clip is trying to
recover it after it springs off and flies halfway across Jon's barn (I'M
FREE!!!). The same thing happened on *both* sides on our '98. Fortunately
Jon managed to find both of them, I can imagine how much fun it would have
been trying to track down replacements. I guess he knows every square inch of
the barn well enough that he was able to spot two small clips that were out of
place.
