Can you identify these bits please?

Post by deano »

Can anyone identify these bits from my car please (I am pretty sure that these came off of my car, but I have tinkered with a lot of cars since then so possibly not or not original)?

The cup washer is 30 mm diameter. I have a feeling that it was used on my front wings, perhaps to hold the flange to the side of the scuttle?

The screw is 35 mm long and has an 8 mm hex head. I think it was paired with the cup washer, and fits perfectly, but I cannot be certain.

The switch cable thingy is about 30 cm long. The switch end obviously attached to a panel e.g. dashboard and probably had a knob. The other end is squared off and must have gone into a square hole....

Any help much appreciated.... :bounce:

The cable is the trip-meter reset cable located under the dash and pushed into the back of the speedometer.

Ahhhhh, was someone else that removed that, which explains why I couldn't remember where it went!

Just came across the cup washer while browsing design911 - it's for the floorboards!
