Seat Clips

[pit_stop]

This may be a very daft question but...........<br><br>I keep going through seat clips (the little metal things which clip into the underside of the frame and hold the foam up). I've tried making some and they break. I guess they must be toughened in some way.  Anyway I'd like the easy option of just buying a few. Can anyone suggest a supplier for what I figure must be a pretty readily accessible / universal part please ???<br><br>Thanks.<br><br>PS I'm only 11 stone just in case you were wondering !

154lb  :o<br><br>that's anorexic for a man here  ;D<br><br>definitely not a reason to blow out the clips [as you mentioned before I got snappy].

Many thanks to all, I'll get it sorted. Once I have I'll go for a few burgers obviously. just so I can see how much strain these clips will take !!  Thanks again.

That's right, I'm a muscular (14-stone) 200-lbs 6'1" & blew-out my back.  Have you ever noticed how thin chiropractors are?  Must be a reason.

<br>These are readily available from Lotus and cheap!<br><br>

To anyone with a series 1 and £89.61 + VAT, I would recommend replacing the clip sprung rubber base with an S2 solid seat base - much more comfortable, and no clip replacing problems,
