Anyone know where I can get OG Brake clips, I had my original ones plated and I'm one short.

I saw them when I searched but they are for 8-10mm pipes which probably not going to hold a brake pipe

Could you put a small bit of rubber around your brake pipe to stop it being metal on metal?

Were they plated originally? The ones that are on my Single Cab were painted black, so I re-painted them the same when I did the brake lines.vwJim wrote:Just had a load plated myself

I've no idea, but think it likely as they're normally in quite good condition, so if they were just painted I'd expect them to be more corroded.
