CPU PLUG RETAINING CLIPPS INFO PLEASE.

Red-leader · 04-Nov-2003, 22:11

As some of you are aware my off at Brands has given me a parts list required for most of the right hand side of the bike. Although not best pleased, all the parts are available EXCEPT ONE !!!!.
On the 998 the CPU plugs are held in by little plastic pull over clipps. How the bloody hell can i get these without buying the whole poxy loom. They are a removeable part once the plug is disconected and an easy task to change if only i could get them.
Various people have and are trying, but i thought i might post here for some more ideas.
I know you all wont let me down, will you !!!!
Thanks guys Kevin

Even Fiat and Alfa will noe supply them as seperate items. Could always try a good car scrapyard with newish Italian cars.

What's wrong with a tie-wrap and gaffa tape?

Make one?? seriously, I've made a few clips like this before. Get some wire, stainless welding rod for instance, of the correct gauge and copy the clip you have.
You only need a couple of snipe nose pliers.

I know what your saying but this thing sorts of forces the plug both in and out.
At worst it will be the wire option, but i would much prefer the correct thingie.
