Post by paulsx »

Hi all need to repair my airbox and noticed one of the bottom clips has gone awol. Has anyone got a broken airbox they want to get rid of so I can rob the clip :)

don't know which model you have, i've owned cars with 907 and 912 engines and there has only ever been one clip in the centre of the bottom of the box, two on the top.

mine has 2 clips on the bottom side, as far as I know it's the original box (4 clips in total)
SJ sportscars has them listed, bit steep at £23.29 part number A907E6302F Anchor A907E6303F

Parts manual says a LC engine can have 3 or 4 clips in total, but HC should have 3.

Meanwhile, Try asking dave at lotuselan17 if he has a broken air box in his shed of bits you could rob
