rtbiscuit Posted July 1, 2009 Share Posted July 1, 2009 i have been very lucky to get a set of bonnet dampers from ian. they need a refurb but thats great because its all part of the plan. by the way Ian is a true leg-end and has helped me out tremendiously. what i'm after is a small clip that holds the ball section of the arm into the socket section if people know what i mean. does anyone know where i can get a new clip/set of clips from.

3FIDDYZ Posted July 1, 2009 Share Posted July 1, 2009 just use some thin wire or a use a paperclip until you can get one... dont think spares are easy to find... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rtbiscuit Posted July 1, 2009 Author Share Posted July 1, 2009 just use some thin wire or a use a paperclip until you can get one... dont think spares are easy to find... that was plan B, but i think it might be the best option. great idea about the paper clip, hadn't thought of that. was wondering what i could supplement with at the workshop. 3fiddyz your a genius.
