I had to get a new front ABS sensor because I broke the old one getting it out to clean. In the process of removing the old sensor, the brass clip (I guess that's what it would be called) that holds it in was damaged. Does anyone know where I might get that clip?

after 12 views no response i'll give it a shot.
as far as i remember, the ABS sensor when it went into the side of the hub, was a black cylinder with wire running from it and non-round base with a hole for a allenkey screw or two? to hold it in it's place. If you are referring to the "needle" at the end of the ABS sensor that would be the sensor itself and that's a no-no and if it's busted or bent it would need replacing.

Thanks for the reply. The sensor in my car is the older style that is just a compression fit into the hole. The sensor is held in the hole by what looks like a tube of brass with spring fingers. That's the peice I need to find.
