I visited a local TVR Breaker up north this morning for a part for my Chim and was well looked after. They had a wedge in there that was in a state of being stripped down. A lot of it was still there so if anyone is after bits just a heads up. If anyone needs anything and they are going to the Candlelighters this weekend I could pick it up for them from the breakers and bring it with me to save on the postage.

Rob, don't suppose they have the stays for the rear roof section? Mine rattle all the bloody time when the roof's down and annoy the crap out of me.

A washer at each end should sort that mate...It will also make them stiffer to close...Ziga

It's the rivetted joints that rattle, especially the middle joint. I dont think a washer will make a difference. Would be nice to get a second set and get them chromed!

I've got a set here doing nothing that I'll swap for the black plastic vent cover that goes on the rear bottom corner of the passenger leather door panel.

I will see how much it has been butchered tomorrow. Hopefully still plenty of it left or hidden away already stripped down.
