Delbert Posted January 11, 2017 Share Posted January 11, 2017 With the cage off there are a few female threads that need filling with a threaded fixing I have seen nylon studs that screw in and are as good as flush , but can be easily unscrewed if needed my usual supplier looked blank any ideas Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wrightpayne Posted January 11, 2017 Share Posted January 11, 2017 Delbert,I recovered some plugs years ago from an original mini that had seat belt anchor points (same thread) in the rear floor but no belts - the threaded hole went to outside hence the need for a plug. Long shot....Ian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mark Durrant Posted January 12, 2017 Share Posted January 12, 2017 A neighbour with a lathe made me some blanking plugs from ally rod which I painted the same colour of the car and fixed with clear silicone so they could be removed if required.

Wrightpayne Posted January 13, 2017 Share Posted January 13, 2017 Delbert,let me know what works best as I'll probably need to do in a few years when I can no longer clamber through the cage. Its a roadsport so only the front fixings to worry about which are hidden by the doors anyway.cheersIan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
