#1 Cable ties !

Post by rswift » Tue Feb 02, 2016 8:25 pm

I know, not a very interesting topic, but the black cable ties I find all over my car (S2).....I would like to replace a few, and also not live in fear of breaking the existing ones.

Do they have a brand/trade name, anyone know of a supplier ? I don't really want to start using modern plastic ones.

Thank you

If you mean the multi hole ties that secure wiring loom to the front frames, they come as a roll with the pegs to secure them available from the usual suppliers.

Hutsons supply them as a kit of studs and a roll of slotted tape. The cost is extortionate ... all of ?3 or so :D
