Hi, I'm hoping for some guidance as I was planning to refit my dash top at the weekend but seemed to have an odd mixture of speed/p-clips (some in body colour so presumably original). However some of theses clips were too big for the 8 screws (large flat head) which I presume are the correct screws used to fix the dash top. I think the correct speed/p-clips are a size 8 - which none of my local motorfactors/hardware stores have in stock ![Frown :( :(](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
Also, I was hoping to fit the new door mirror fitting (which was bought from c&c), but the original washer/spacer has a different thread pitch!
Cheers,
Mike
Three smaller p-clips and one larger/longer - which the screws are too small and don't 'bite' into.
