Keith Scotch Posted September 10, 2023 Report Share Posted September 10, 2023 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 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Graham C Posted September 10, 2023 Report Share Posted September 10, 2023 Try Bresco Vehicle services Loughborough, +44 (0) 1509 610834. Suggest you phone them on Monday. Went round their store room a few years ago, amazed what clips, fasteners they have. Graham Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chrishawley Posted September 10, 2023 Report Share Posted September 10, 2023 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).

Colin Lindsay Posted September 10, 2023 Report Share Posted September 10, 2023 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. https://www.accu.co.uk/knurled-thumb-screws-din-653/400829-SKTT-M3-10-A1-BL?uk_google_shopping=1&c=3&msclkid=8acc332139551df3320457dcfeba0900&utm_source=bing&utm_medium=cpc&utm_campaign=PMAX - Test [UK]&utm_term=2330208736928409&utm_content=PMAX - Test Those are just illustrations so not the size required but could you adapt yours?

Very helpful and very reasonable I thought! Thanks again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
