914World.com _ FS/WTB: 914 Parts _ WTB: Brake line retaining 'U-clip'

Posted by: rjames Jun 2 2010, 01:15 PM

I am looking for the ushaped spring-clip that holds the soft brake lines to the strut in front. Actually, it's the same clip that is used on all for corners of the car to secure the soft lines. It's the one that is such a PITA to remove on the rears.

I was surprised I couldn't find one locally from supplier I bought new brake lines from.

Thanks!

I got mine from Sierra Madre Collection online, & AA may have them too.

They are also used on VW (go figure) and I found some stainless steel ones at my local VW parts house. Maybe try some on-line VW parts guys.

VW store didn't have them.
I tried ordering one from AA, and although I am sure they have the part, I was sent the wrong part in the mail. I thought I'd save the hassle and just if someone here has one laying around that they'd be willing to part with.
I'll check with one of the guys parting out a car, or maybe try AA again.

Thanks!
