Welcome to FTE. Which clips did you break? The slave cylinder is installed by inserting it int he bell housing and giving it about a 1/4 turn clockwise.

If you're just referring to the thin plastic pieces that hold the rod into the slave cylinder during install, those are supposed to break. If you're referring to the tabs that are on the largest round part on the slave, those are what hold the slave in the bell housing.
