TR2/3/3A Bits and Pieces Identification TR 3A

Afternoon, was rummaging in some bags of odds and ends and found some interesting stuff. I was really looking for some of the heater mounting bolts because I need a few more and found these items.The screw is a 1/4 by 3/4 and is self tapping. I have 15 of those. The larger clip is a u shaped clip and both sides are the same shape. It sure is familiar to me but can't drag it out of the old gray matter. If you see anything familiar please let me know.

Thanks, Tinkerman

Isn't the U-clip a brake shoe retaining spring?

I dunno... A mind is a terrible thing to waste.

:iagree:
I've got some of those self-tapping screws myself, but I don't believe they are original to the car. Mine were holding things like the aftermarket radiator recovery bottle, and the headlight relays.

Your spot on John. Found it in the Moss catalog, that's why it looked so familiar to me.

I think the clip on the right is the clip the fuse holder for the dash lights. It is located on the dash board lip just below the center instrument panel
