Anybody know where to obtain or have any of the original spec TVR hex nut covers for the engine bay? The little black plastic ones that usually sat ontop of the various bracket bolts etc.



I can find the usual two-part carpet / panel trim ones on bay and I have found other domed covers but cannot seem to find the original type.

Anybody?

For info. Some of the trim ones are the same as number plate caps and they are similar to the type sold at B+Q etc for making screw heads look posh around the bath.

Hi J, I have seen these and they are similiar for the cockpit trim screw covers but not exactly the same. The originals are on ebay for sale but its the engine bay ones I am after.

Just a thought. Gona cost ya, domed stainless.

Clicky

I just googled and posted the first return for a look see. We use them in work for various odds and sods to stop us scagging our hands more than anything.

Mike,
Car Builder Solutions do nut covers, they are slightly different, as they are domed. to be SVA compliant, and start at 13mm

I was looking for the original flat type. I wanted the car to look 'original' but new if you know what I mean.
