[GreenKeys] Red lenses on model 28

I don't have a good answer on removing the clips, or finding new ones. 
I have a case of a lens and clip that won't stay in place also.  I was 
so happy to find the clip lurking in the base of the cabinet, but then 
disappointed when it wouldn't stay in place

My plan when I get to that point is a bead of RTV around the inside of 
the cabinet.  RTV isn't as permanent as epoxy in case you have a need to 
remove.
