Hi Folks,

Had just done the regular 15 mile drive to work in my G Reg, 1989 Defender 110.

About a week ago I found a black screw on the floor under the steering column, looked around for a hold but couldnt find its home so I laughed it off.

But today I found a clip on the floor !? Please have a look at the pic and let me know if this clip holds the whole car together or if I can put it into my missus make-up case to add to all of them hair clips etc.....

Thanks

Why are you concerned about a tiny thing like that??? Bung it out the windy, if you find a BIG thing laying on the floor, it's what the little yoke held in, so chuck it all out the windy. Job sorted.

If it was a Gaylander, you should be very worried...

Looks too big to be a clip that holds the clutch/brake pedal to the push bar - but worth just checking!

James will ID in seconds I'm sure

Not sure

Looks too big to be a clip that holds the clutch/brake pedal to the push rod - but worth checking!

May also be the clip that holds the window winder on?

I'm sure James will ID in seconds

Looks like one of them clips that fastens an electrical block connector.
To stop it shaking loose and coming undone.

Do you wear boots for work? Its amazing what your boot tread can pick up.

If it comes off easily it's either absolutely vital or pointless.

or even just a split pin been used to bridge something during a test of electrics at one time, theres nothing under the dash of an 1989 that uses anything like that
