GT6 luggage floor retaining clips

[Keith Scotch]

I'm looking for 2 of these clips for my GT6 mark 3. I think that Canley call them spire clips and studs. Unfortunately Canley don't stock them. I've found a company called SD Products that sell them (see photo) but you have to buy 50! Any ideas where else I might find them or perhaps suggestions for an alternative way of holding the panel down? I've thought about Dzus fasteners but not sure they'd do the trick

 

Thanks

Keith

Yup, good bet that Bresco will have 'em. But just to mention that, for the OE fitment, it needs to be female thread with a countersunk screw (so that there's no thread sticking out to snag on the carpet).

My Mk1 had a slightly different setup, it used captive nuts like these: https://www.ukmgparts.com/product/mgc-midcat-8-submgc10-fuel-system/special-captive-nut-mgb-346071a

The panels then used a flat topped knurled screw called a grip bolt to fasten.

Those are just illustrations so not the size required but could you adapt yours?

Thanks. I reckon I could adapt those if necessary.

Hi Graham. Bresco were brilliant! They actually sell a kit for £12.99. Very helpful and very reasonable I thought! Thanks again.
