Are you talking about the oil and tranny cooler lines? If so then you should still be good. Alot of times our customers don't want to replace the clips and thats what we do all the time.

I have never seen one blow out if thats what you are asking. But in due time get them and replace them for piece of mind if you want to.
On my car I put newer ones and still used wireties to be safe.
