I had this feeling you would Tim, I wondered if Mark's (Damien.wrl) fettling has ventured thus far?

I have sussed Tim (Eddypeck) out…. I know exactly what it is but I will wait for someone else to get it … it’s defiantly a harbinger off the coil injectors feeding into the plasma relay from the Dilithium crystals  … they have now been superseded by a bungee

I'll stick my head above the paripit, these are the clips that hold the heater box together?

Correct sli_gti

I had quite a selection of them when doing the MK2/MK3 HVAC mix and match.

Brings back memories of what a sticky messy job the heater flap fix and matrix swap are. Just the job to get sorted before we start using that W word Brrrrrr.

For some reason I have two of these, though I believe there's only the one on the car, but don't take that as a given.

Unfortunately both are broken (hence not cleaning them up a bit for you), and bizarrely the missing bits from one are present on the other... if you'd a magic wand you could morph them into a single good one.

The second image isn't me showing off my supernatural powers, just one sitting atop the other -

Andy's right... they clip on the chassis arm and secure the brake pipe.

Deliberately left it off in some other recent piccies a I know how cunning you lot are!

I don't think it is.  The brake clip from the factory had a sprung c to hold the pipe firmly and were white.  I can get a picture.

I think it is the clip on the same chassis leg that secures the wires to the headlight resistor.  Common as hens teeth!

This is a factory brake clip, you can just see the remains of the C clip under the tie wrap.  VW did stop supplying white clips and offered a range of more generic black clips, I have a few on my car.  Perhaps that is when the design changed?

Not got one of those on my car but it looks like a fuel line retainer.  One that clips into plastic or or a heat shied?

I have a small bumper car.  Something to do with big bumper wiring?

This was my thinking too,

Not to do with the fuel lines and not necessarily exclusive to big bumper cars, though in reality probably more likely to be found on them I suppose (in the UK at least... another clue)
