Default rimmer bros.

although pretty good they seem to be running a bit short of a few items, so has anyone got any yellow fir tree clips for d post fixing and also the sprung metal clips for the same job? would be very grateful as the cover pieces keep dropping off on bumps due to no fixing clips, lol.

Do you mean these.

I heard today that Xpart have gone on lock down. If this is the case, as they are the MG Rover genuine parts supplier, and I believe supply Rimmer Bros, some items may start to run out.

I will check out the metal clips when I am back to work-but I only work the night shift now to social distance !!

Talking of "Fir Tree"fixings do you have the fir tree fixing that connects the front wing and bumper together It is yellow and is like a ball and socket arrangement.

XPart have indeed closed - a responsible decision given the way larger businesses operate, but it's causing some availability issues here too.
We bunged in a 4-figure order when we were told, but it's going to be a pain until things return to 'normal'.

Who knows what normal is anymore!
