seanl82 23 Posted May 24, 2020 Can anyone identify this, and know where it goes please!? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
fendervg 32 Posted May 24, 2020 Hard to see from only one angle - could it be part of the handle/lock mechanism? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'm pretty sure it's from the rear axle area somewhere, but can't remember where exactly. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
seanl82 23 Posted May 24, 2020 (edited) And another part..... Note to self, don't leave it almost 4 years after taking things off to put them back on again! Edited May 24, 2020 by seanl82 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I have a big tub of screws here on my desk and no idea where they go....will really need to start labelling everything if it'sw going to be months or years before it goes back together again....

It's the classic, I know what that is I won't forget....... Getting on a bit now, pics on ETKA & in the Bentley don't help much either. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yeah looks like those are identified then. Not sure why I have a different type. No idea what the other one is in the first pic though...... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

seanl82 23 Posted May 24, 2020 Ok I've taken off the handbrake cable retaining clip I had fitted, and the part number is stamped on it. Its the second No#16 identified below so essentially, does the same thing. Think I must have ordered them years ago thinking 'I don't have those' Sorry for the confusion and thanks everyone for the comments/help. Still need to identify the one in the first pic though!

Handbrake cable clips fit further in front of the other clips that hold it tight to the axle. They fit at the actual axle joint with the body to hold them slightly off the car to prevent rubbing I suppose. I cant find my picture of it. If no one else posts a picture, I will get one Tuesday when I go see my car Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

easypops 8 Posted May 24, 2020 Could the first one be the middle part of the height adjustment on the front seatbelts? Not sure how far you stripped it? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I don't think so Martin, I haven't touched that so no reason it would be. I'm sure I took it off of the nearside rear somewhere..... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I've put the wire ones on now as the others I had (same as yours) were what I took off and had electroplated, but you can see the pitting on them so new ones look neater.
