All except one brake pad spring clips were missing from the car. I was hearing & feeling more pad drag than I'd like to when pushing the car in neutral in the driveway.
My local parts shop only had full brake hardware kits at $19 per axle. Overkill! I don't need ALL those parts.
Then I read someone used binder clip springs on their rear pads, so I gave it a go:
With a little tweaking with a pair of pliers to open them up and angle the ends just so, they fit nicely. I also cleaned up & re-greased the caliper slider pins.
Happy with the results!
Fronts next.
Oh, and this is what the OEM front & rear springs look like:
