I know what you mean. I think the only way to remove it is to break it at the weak spot and drill it out. I have some on order and will update once I receive/install them.accidentally broke one of the frunk clip when putting the frunk back in. anyone have any idea how to remove the broken clip, so i can install a new clip when i get one? i even try to remove one of the clips not broken, and i can't figure it out.

YesFor those who have installed themselves, does this look correct for the passenger side plate after being screwed on? I'm not sure it's resting on anything, and it's kind of "leaning" against the side of the fender instead of sitting flush. Feels like the screw will be doing all the work, and the plate is just kind of sitting there. Just want to be sure before I put the new strut on.
So I took a few breaks along the way, but it was a solid 4 total hours for me including...
1) borrowing my wife’s forearms for the strut removal and install as mine did not fit,
2) second guessing when we agreed to install the lower ball strut mount (pass vs drivers side) ... then I found the install page,
3) mounting the TO motor/actuator to the drivers side frame - to then learn that it’s awfully snug when I reinstalled the frunk tub - though it did ultimately work.
It’s certainly a fun DIY, and I’d totally do it again in half the time.
My wife things I’m weird - and it was a silly use of money - but it makes me smile and I know I’ll use the frunk more now that I have a soft close mechanism.
I brought my car in to show them the broken clip. They’re sending a mobile tech out to replace it.I noticed two clips were broken when I removed the tub, so I swap the broken one with the good ones holding the top cover so don't have the remove the tub again when I get the replacement.
Use a small pry tool behind the front of the clip (against the metal), when prying use your finger to push the clip out from behind.
Went to the SC just now to get them but they are out of stock, they are kind enough to arrange for a mobile tech to come out and replace them in couple weeks.
I plugged the brown plug in and unplugged to move the motor and it wouldn’t go back in. The purple plastic inside the plug shifted, so had to fix that and one of my strut connector pins bent when initially plugged in.
I pushed the lower purple section up where the lower groves are. Apparently the purple was pushed down into that slot and was blocking the plug from sliding in.I have the same problem with the brown connector for the motor, how did you fix the purple plastic piece? It wouldn’t seat fully but making connection, so I just zip tie it.
Anyone else have their frunk randomly decide to pop but not lift itself once in a while?
I've been troubleshooting this with teslaoffer for quite some time.

Had this issue. Take the purple piece and place carefully over the male portion of the plug, then insert male plug (with the purple part attached) carefully into the female portion. It should then connect/secure easily/perfectly. If purple piece is stuck inside the female plug, use a pic or maybe skinny flathead and pull it out
