No. New struts come with new clips. They will already be in place on the strut ends. Simply 'snap' the strut into place over the mounting ball.

When removing old struts, the retaining clip doesn't have to be completely removed. With your screwdriver, you pry the clip back far enough to release it's hold on the ball.
