There are two of these clips above the radiator, and the electric fan gets screwed into the clips. Does anyone know what these are called and where I can get replacements (with the screws as well ideally)?

Got a Napa near you?
If yours Napa is anything like mine they will have this big loose leaf binder.
With all sorts of parts like that.
Not pictures but the actual part.
Makes matching up something really easy.
Or finding something that will do the job.
They won't come with screws/bolts but there are specs on the package for what ones to use.
Thread pitch and diameter. You just have to figure out the length.
Now all that being said that picture does not look right to me for the two clips that the electric fan gets screwed into.
At least not what I have in my '00.
That picture looks like this:

Mine look more like this:

Good to know, since I have a 2000 as well. One of the them didn't have a screw, and the other screw wouldn't thread, so very possible they are the wrong part.
