Anyone got or know where to get fuel tank straps? One of mine has broke, in fact corroded away to nothing, need to replace them asap, MOT due.

When I replaced mine, I just went to pull a part and got them. I think I spent $5 on both of them.

Lots of online suppliers for the U.S., but I think you may have to pay tariffs in the UK. 30 bucks US around here, plus shipping from any online parts house.

Might be worth the tax/tariffs.

You'll need J-Bolts and nuts for that job.

My bolts came out really easily haha. I've seen some opinions on here though that hanger-type bolts will work in lieu of the J bolts....
