Help: dash panel clips broken?

Hi,

I would like to know if anyone has recently remove the dash panel. I like to find out if there is any clip
above the center air vent that hold the dash panel
and the dash together? (Please see the attached
picture.)

The reason I asked the question is that the
dash panel on my TLS is separating from the dash,
right above the center air vent area. I suspect
clip or holder got broken by dealer due to previous
attempt to fix the dash rattle.

If I can confirm there is a clip there, I can have dealer to
repair it as they seems that they don't know there is a clip
at all.

Please advise,

-- william

Hi NsX Pilot, maybe you are right, I should just leave it
alone .

The dash area has been rattling for a long time
and dealer couldn't pinpoint it. I don't blame
them as it is difficult to figure it out.

Plesanton Acura asked me to bring the car for them
to inspect next Wednesday as there will be factory
representative going there. I will probably take it
there to see what they said ... what a hassal I get
to myself I hope that factory representative will
be helpful.
