Steering wheel swap clip replacement

Hi all, I recently swapped my 2 spoke pre facelift steering wheel for a 3 spoke I got on eBay along with a airbag from a separate seller. Installation was fairly straight forward except I broke on of the plastic clips that goes on top of the connectors, I was still able to put the clip back on but not all of it was together I guess. After I finished the red airbag light was on assuming its because of that clip. Any ideas on where to get a clip without having to buy a new steering wheel clock and which tool to get to reset the light. I also already have inpa and ncs expert not sure if I can use those to reset the light. Thanks!

Inpa will reset airbag light. As far as clock spring. You will need to replace.
