Hi!

I am searching for brakeline/fuelline/cable clips around R4 and got stucked!

P1080362-1.jpg

I have found renault part no for clips but not able to find some to buy.
And still waiting answer from renault dealer about possibility to buy clips from renault

clips 1,2 and 3 are for brakeline
4 is for handbrake cable
5 is for fuel line
6 is plug for side skirts on GTL model
7 is plug for floor that holds carpets in place

Did you find any off thees to buy?
What did you use to replace these clips?

I have found some on ebay.co.uk but seller does not want to send abroad!

Can anyone help with this?!

Thank you for reading!
 
Something similar to number 1 is commonly available ( at least here in Poland ) Number 7 probably too.

For example this is one producer's site http://www.spinkisamochodowe.pl/ mostly for newer cars but you can always match something.

Don't you have similar things at car shops in Croatia ?
 
you can get side skirt plugs new around £4 for pack of 4? send me part numbers and I will find out if I can get the others. new old stock panels coming soon....
 
2 chudson:
Thank you for the link. I will try to find clips. Can i bought it online from that page?

It seems that in Croatia there is no car body shop where i can buy at least similar clips.
Found one but they do not have any dimensions of the clips, and you can buy only accordingly to original part no.
In that shop i have found clip NO:3 but minimum order is 50 peaces. Now i am waiting for price for 50 pieces to decide

Plugs for side skirt for pound a peace, and i need 12. Nice.:o

Finding this clips is going to be expensive sport :mrgreen:

Here are part no for clips on picture

This week i paid for clip similar to number one ( fits perfectly into oryginal holes in the chassis ) 1,50zł which is about 50 euro cents for one piece. If you want I can get you some and send them to Croatia.
I'll try to look for clips number 7 too.

The clips I bought were for pipes from 4,8 to 6mm diameter. Don't know how thick is your fuel line but mine is 6mm and will fit too

steve, I can get them if your dealer wont help.
 
Thanks to bouth off you.
Must look little better all this new informations.

And stil waiting answer from renault dealer about prices!
 
Thank you all guys for help and conversation!

Finally got prices from local Renault dealer.
It was me why it took so long.

Find out that most of this clips are still available and quite price reachable.
So i will buy clips from them.
Because when i add shipment cost to UK prices, difference is so small.

But some clips are incredibly expensive.
Like that plug that covers outer door trim on GTL. Price is 45kn a piece. That is 5GBP for one.

But i have found some alternative (3GBP for 20 pieces) and now wait to see will fit nicely.
If not then puddlefluff we will need to talk.;)

I always wondered why a car manufacturer makes a chassis and then drill holes in the beams and stuck a plactic clip in place for supporting fuel and brake lines..
Yes, tokeep the car original you've got to spent a "fortune" on new plastic clips but still the holes in the beams remain and water and dirt will again get inside and rust is a fact.
I weld a treaded rod on those drilled spots and use P-clips to support the various lines.

A more sturdy solution.
