Jan, it's for the speedo cable. The clip goes in a hole & then a grommet goes in to stop it coming back out. Stops the cable being fried on the exhaust manifold.

Thank you! Is it still available? I'm having problems with the speedo cable touching the manifold...
And cable ties are not realy that neat a solution.

Opps! Didn't type quick enough

Not sure if the clip on the front subframe for the brake pipe would open up enough for the cable? May be worth a look....

Mike.

this should be the clip,

Is the Somerfords one a later style one as Al's looks to have a circular mount to it or is that just the way the hole looks on the image? Whatever I need one too.

Not the best image on the Somerford site but looks similar to me. The flat section goes in the hole in the bulkhead & the round section grips the cable. The rubber grommet stops the clip being pulled back out of the hole.
