Its not uncommon for A/C repair shops to butcher the dash when replacing the evaporator on the 850. Yes there will be rattles, maybe even some electrical smoke if you're lucky, from wires chaffing and shorting out. Clips and screws left out, who needs them if you can't see 'em from the driver's seat right? If you can work on the car yourself you are better off removing the dash cover yourself and replacing the clips than taking it back to the same shop that dorked it up in the first place. I'll email you the information on the instrument panel and removing the dash cover and you can see if it's something you want to straighten out on your own.
