Pipe clips, where from?

Post by fairwynds »

Evening
am currently doing the petrol tank out refurb. Ive also just replaced the accelerator cable and the primary (front) handbrake cable as they were so mush easier to do with the tank out.
There are a number of broken plastic pipe clips I need to replace:

1) U shaped (bit like a horseshoe) push fitting ones that pop into the existing holes before the pipe just clips in

2) Clips that slide sideways onto a small metal 'button' like thing, that then leave a clip to push the pipe into

3) Clips that slide onto the edge of chassis rails and have a couple of 'teeth' like bits that bite into the chassis, leaving a clip to push the (F to R) brake pipe into.

The various pipes I need to secure are clutch (slave?), front to rear brake pipe and accelerator cable conduit.

Have just spent some fruitless time on google, so any ideas from you experts would be welcomed...

Many thanks

thanks Itchyfeet, they also feature under my van, but are all intact. It seems the others Ive listed all go brittle over time and end up snapping. I will try VW today. (Cant use cable ties on the places I need the clips, as no holes to utilise, and I won't be drilling any :shock: )
Any other ideas happily received.
