1800s air vent grill clips.

paul staines · Mar 23rd, 2014, 13:08

I am replacing the air vent grill with an old style Jensen metal grill. The clips do not seem to be available. if any forum member has any, or can advise a safe way to fix it would be of great help.
Many thanks Paul

its on my to-do list i will give one to my m8 in greace and everyone will be able to buy them then , i just have been so busy and amazons come first on my list but i will get to it soon .

in the mean time if anyone has some i can assure you they will be coming up to buy so if paul is in need badly feel free to let him have them and i will replace with new at pauls cost lol

Thanks. I bought the grill on ebay. It came from Greece. Spent hours rubbing down / filling, before painting. I do have the original alloy grill that i could use until clips become available. Would rather not as the Jenson style one now looks amazing. Regards Paul.

Robert,

If you get your mate to make the clips for this air intake, keep me in mind for a set.

Cheers

i can have a batch sent over to me enough to to ten cars so i have them in stock

for those from the forum aswell as him selling them via evilbay

100% it will happen i just have to dig a clip out for a pattern then send it to him for his magic part then bingo were all happy by the way i will get him to use stainless steel so no fear of them rusting anytime soon

if a jobs worth doing then must be done right i say

will keep you posted and when there ready i will pop a update in here for all to see .....

kind regards
robert

The Ebay seller ( from Greece ) that supplied the grill has suggested fitting
it with the non setting windscreen seal. Sounds a good idea to me !
I was going to fit the original aluminium one until the clips become available.
So glad I do not have to do this as the Jenson one looks fantastic.
Sprayed it graphite grey to match the car.
Regards Paul.
