[928uk] Bowden cable clip

[jonathanrackowe at gmail.com]

Hi James, 

I think it's a steel spring clip. Not meaning to state the obvious, but I take it you have thoroughly gone all across the area where it dropped with a powerful magnetic pick-up tool - several times. I have recovered tiny lost bits from the floor that I couldn't see by doing this.

Best regards,
Jonathan

1991 928 GT Amethyst Metallic

I've tried to highlight the clip in this image: https://ibb.co/Ldwmg5g

It's really small.

Ah. Is it like the clips in the door lock links, or heater mixer linkage?
If you can find a picture of one, someone might be able to suggest a source.

Unfortunately, I don't think that the clip is available separately from the cable assembly 🙁 That's why I am a bit stuck.

Thanks

I would suggest that you start by identifying the part number using a
webpage such as this:

On examining mine before I adjusted it, I determined that the clip wouldn't fall out but was quickly proved wrong and I can't find where it went :-(
