Hello when installing a upgraded fuel line I broke the quick connect on the fuel filter on the driver side, the fuel line is loose and won’t stay anymore and can be pulled out easily, I been looking for a part for a new quick connect but can’t find anything as it’s all plastic part of the stock assembly. Is there a aftermarket fuel fitting solution I can use or do I need to buy another fuel filter. Look at the picture to see the broke quick connect clip.

Looks like you will need a new filter assembly. Too bad but hey.. at least the filter will be new again!
I have a new one as well and will be installing it next week.

I’ve looked to that one as well but I thinks it’s overkill. At least for my current set up a stage 3 lpfp will be sufficient.

just buy a cheap ass used one off eBay. Truth is -- the internal filters very very rarely clog. I've heard 2 reports in 5 years and it's questionable whether or not that was the origins of their issue. If the internal filter was an issue, company's would have been making hangers for that sole purpose yearsssss ago.
