hand brake clips

Post by gollfy »

Hello all,

Im after the clips that hold the hand brake cable in place around the trailing arms area.

Anyone know if they are available anywhere?

Cheers

Dave

Now you're talking, just bought myself a Rivnut set, looking forward to replacing all the original fixings that are now buggered. Know any suppliers of stainless p clips? Thanks, mitch.
Why would the glass be anything other than half full?

Does anyone know if 10 mm are the correct size? Bigger or smaller? Many thanks.

10mm are what i bought for changing mine - my mate done the work whilst i was on my hols and they are fixed with bolts. Just let me know if you need to know exactly how they were fitted and i'll give him a shout?
