    Seem to have lost the pinch bolts that attach the heater cables to the control pods. I would have thought these could be bought for a quid a bag if I could find them. Has anyone found a supplier? I don't want to buy a clamp "kit" - just the pinch bolts and preferably a bag of 10 as I think they're the same for the accelerator cable.
     
  2. I'll have a measure tomorrow. Kay's would probably have them.

    Couldn't find them on there. They've probably got some techy name in the trade.
     
  4. Don’t think they’re special. I’ll have look tomorrow.

    Exactly the jobby. You see my point though, £3.50 for one. The threaded sleeves are 10 for £4. I've got a bunch of M4 screws so as long as only I cock up drilling the hole in 8 of them, I'm quids in! :D
