Brake part missing...don't know what it is
 
Well there is a rattle coming from my front driver side wheel so I jacked up the car and had a look. The only difference I can see is that the driver side, front, inboard brake pad is missing the metallic clip that goes at the bottom (ground direction) of the pad where it fits into the caliper. Is this the brake 'shim' or is this the 'anti-rattle spring?' I don't really know what either looks like, but as far as I can tell, its the only piece missing.:scratch:

edit: According to the FSM it's either the 'support clip' or the 'pad clip' but I cannot tell which one... :(

should I just order this?

They only come in that kit, so yeah. You can't get just the one as far as I know.

Anti-rattle spring is the hairpin looking deal. The other pieces are shims.
