No, they are not dash pad clips - much smaller. They are about 5/16" wide and about 1.5" long. They appear to serve no purpose, other than to create rust spots in the area. At first I thought they had something to do with the headlight retainer bracket, but the brackets have their own screw holes to secure them to the headlight buckets. Maybe they are for some sort of covering that snaps on over the headlights, but I don't know why anyone would need that. They have been on the truck since I bought it in 2002.
