So, given that there aren't any official dealers ATM, where do you buy funny little spare parts. For example, the plastic seat belt extension arm has snapped on my passenger side - it's a 6" piece of plastic that even with car markup, I would expect to cost 10 quid or so, but I can't actually find anyone to supply it!

I've tried the usual online places, but it's all coils/plugs/clutches/wheels etc.

Any thoughts? Any TVR garages out there with decent spare part inventory?

Interesting....I may pop into the local dealer then.

Any idea what that bit of the seatbelt assembly is actually called? An official name?

Again, it's the bit that holds the seat belt out 6 inches, so it doesn't strangle you...

They're from a lot of Vauxhalls Cavalier Corsa etc. If you look on the back of the long leg it will have the Vauxhall part number on it, there about 7 or 8 numers long. Ring you're Vauxhall agent there not expensive, or any scrap yard.smile
