Carver water connection security clip broken

[MisterC]

I inherited my van (our first) with one of the carver water pump connection security clips (the lower one) broken off. You can get replacement clips easy enough but I was wondering if anyone has experience of replacing them? It's sheared off level with the base so there's nothing to grip onto. I was going to drill it out (very slowly) with a narrower drill bit. Is this the way to do it? Do the new ones simply push in? I'm guessing they've a ridge or similar to hold them in place once pushed home? So many questions for such a small item, sorry.

Regards

Paul

Don't drill it out but a 3mm drill bit would be ideal to punch the broken plastic pin through the hole from the outside inward.

Simple job then to push the new one in place

Thanks for the advice. I'll try that. Paul
