    Hi, Geranium!

    Are the clips compression, spring types of clips, please?

    Thanks!

    I guess that would be one way of explaining the clips. All I can figure out.. is that the 2 notch's on the panel fit into the 2 V-shaped 'clips' (?) on the inside frame. But they won't 'hold' anymore and I can't see anything wrong with them. Nor do they appear to be adjustable... OR removeable!
    Any ideas?

    Are they held in like a rivet would be?

    Also, would it be possible for you to post an image of one of them here, please?

    No.. not like a rivet would be. I have taken a couple pic's.. and will ATTEMPT to post the images. The pic shows the v-shaped clip on furnace frame... and the other (on panel) shows the fastener.

    I tried to post the images.. but it asked for the URL of my image. I do not understand this. Can you explain to me how to post the pictures.. please?

    Are the images in your computer or on another website, please?

    If they are in your computer, you would press the Browse button and upload them to the site from the location in your computer.

    If they are on another website, that's when you would copy and past the URL of the location of the website.

    Thanks!

    Hi... they are on my computer, but I don't get the option to 'browse' as in regular emails. There is just that yellow square to click on to 'insert image'. That is when I get the request for the URL of my image. I've tried the 'go advanced' to no avail.
    ? -Thanks
