    Hi guys,

    Before I replace about 6 or so factory cable ties from a few areas around the engine bay can anyone help me locate or sell me 6 or so factory correct white cable ties.

    First photo is a factory correct tie that I'm looking for.

    I can get similar ties at my local hardware store but they don't have the same angled clasp that the factory ones have, they are more of a square box affair.

    Thanks in advance.

    Rosey, Try an aircraft parts supplier. I'm a retired aircraft mechanic and used the ones I think you are looking for. They are a much better quality than the ones you will normally find. Try Aviall aircraft parts.

    Do let us know what you find. I would never have noticed but now I will never NOT notice. I think that I am beginning to hate you guys. ;-)

    Anyone know where to get the little white blocks that hold the metal fuel lines? I need all of them.

    One of our Fchatters makes a kit with all new white plastic blocks.. Verrell?

    I'm ashamed to say that I've forgotten who it is even though I have purchased the kit.

    I brought some of those clips years ago and they are still in place and none have broken.
    A great replacement and a great guy to deal with.
    Cheers

    I accidentally bought those white zip ties from Ricambi America. They are in the parts diagrams and have a part number. The description was something like "clamp", so I was thinking it was something more exotic than a wire tie. It wasn't.
