Have I got something missing?

Had a dent removed from the bonnet yesterday. Ther dent removal was impressive but he car has definitely been returned with two clips missing. Is there anything else missing from the underside of the bonnet? I'm particularly interested in the flap assembly and the expanse of aluminium between the flap and sound proofing. I've checked parts listing but the flap comes as an assembly. 2003 TDi 75, thank you.

Hi,

I have this picture to hand if it helps. Its an FSI bonnet but I don't think the TDI has extra sound insulation on the bonnet. I think the bonnet rubber seal is just to the front of the insulation so the bare part isn't exposed to the engine.

It does look like you are missing the front two clips. Note, yes I know I am missing my drain rubber!

Looks to me like the missing clips might be there, just not pushed through the holes in the insulation? They work a bit like shirt buttons.
 
Agree with Ian, it looks like the clips are visible under the insulation. If so, they just need removing and re-seating correctly.

Thank you, those drains are still available through Audi. Bought two recently because mine had gone hard and brittle. I think though it is a classic part so you need a dealer who will combine orders to spread the delivery charge.
 
For £1 you get pack of 10 clips. So how much you ordered? :D

Pack of 10 but I paid £3 and a bit from a UK supplier. I expect they are exactly the same thing.

Should get to me quicker unless they turn out to be a Chinese seller pretending to be in the uk.
 
By the time it had stopped raining the two clips were definitely not there. However the cheap eBay clips did a fine job.

10 for £3 delivered from the UK or much less if you have time to wait for them to arrive from China. See above comments.
