Hi, does anyone know the part number of the fixings that hold the chrome trims on, either side of the scoop?
I cant find them listed in the series 2 parts list
Thanks
Steve

Shows you the parts. There's a special rivet which has a washer under it.

Thanks.
Mine were not standard rivets. They appeared to be a small rectangular plate, about 15mm x 6mm with a brass screw brazed into it. These then slid along the chrome trim to line up with the holes. Probably home made.
Thanks again
Steve
