Braided Sleeving
« on: April 10, 2013, 12:33:02 PM »
Does anyone know where I can get some braided sleeving which looks like the origonal? I am talking about the sleave on the wires from the points plate, that runs round the clutch housing. Mine is split and it appears those wire are not available as a separate part. So I am thinking of repairing mine instead of forking out for a complete new plate kit. I have found some places selling black but not the white/silver/ocra or what ever it is supposed to be.

Cheers all

Not sure, but have you tried Maplins?

considering the price of the complete plate with points and condensers from Dave Silver I don't think its worth it

Thanks for the replies. I couldn't find any soft white sleeving but I went for some black sleeving off eBay. Fits and looks good.
Cheers.
