General Tank Strap?

Thanks again Dave - just ordered one.
They love to say that they can't get them... but lo!
Asked which part no. it was and they said they don't give part no's out!
£32 plus vat - no expense spared... :slayer:

Well I'd like to know why they don't give out part numbers :mad:

I went to our not so local dealship in Yarmouth, and got quotes of all the front bumper brackets, and they we're more than willing to print off a sheet with diagrams and part numbers, dad went 'that's impressive' till I pointed out that the same ePer system is available on the forum :p

Jon.
 
Exactly, as last time they faxed through ePer printouts to try and establish the correct part no. for the engine/transmission mounting.
Maybe they are afraid you'll use part no. and get a lower quote from another Fiat dealership (?)
I got 'unavailable' for the shock absorber mounting rubbers, when they are in fact available in packs of 8 elsewhere (says he, as this was a year ago)
I think some dealerships just can't be bothered!
 
Strap ass. has arrived (part no.7598694) just parted with £42.29!!! :eek:
Alas 'tis only mild steel an' all. I was sort of expecting it to be a spring steel with the 'surplus fold' to front mounting.
:idea: I think a 'how-to' for making one (in thicker gauge steel) would be a good idea. I should make a template before dispatching it off to Derby...
thanks again Dave!
