OK OP. I checked, I don't have one of those clips. The mechanic is an alarmist. The clip cost less than two dollars. If you very carefully lift up on

If you very carefully lift up on the pillar, similar to what you are doing in the video, You can get that clip out of there and slide in a new one.

See attached PDF. When you lift up on the finisher, there is a "saddle" that sits over a nib in the body. About 3 or 4 inches back.
If you carefully lift straight up, you should be able to replace that pin.
