Hub Caps & Coil Springs

[Chamba]

Hi guys. I'm after a set of four chrome hub caps in excellent/very good condition and don't really want to pay the £75 + postage they're going for on eBay! Can anyone help?

Also, not so critically, I'm also after a pair of coil springs for the front suspension.

If you can help drop me a mail.

Anyone???

Also, I had a mirror incident today in that it fell out and smashed on the floor when I closed the door, oops :I. The retaining rubber around the edge had rotted apart. Does anyone know of a good place that might do replacement rubber or a mirror of the same style??

Hi Chamba, I might still have a mirror and rubber kicking about up at the barn - the metal surround was rotted through, and I can't remember if I threw the lot or not - I am changing mirror styles - I will see if I can find it tomorrow, and let you know.

I got some new mirror off the bay - they may have been advertised as series 2 landrover ones.

I found one, but forgot to bring it back

I will be going back up to the van tomorrow evening, and will remeber it this time, and post a pic.

Here's a couple of photos, with pint for scale!

The size and shape looks similar to your in the photo, just made of plastic not metal. I can try and take the mirror and rubber off and post to you if you like?

Blimey, I didn't think I'd have much luck with the mirror request, but I'm inundated! I think that looks about right Chasbaps. I do need 2 x rubbers so I shall drop a mail to both of you; cheers fellas

PS. That pint looks a little flat!

its the diving knife you need to watch out for - the pint is champion beer of britain 2008 - waiting to lose its crown come August

It's a flat but happy pint.......Look at the big smiley lips on the glass?

Many thanks to Igman and Chasbaps for very kindly helping me out in my hour of need. I've finally got round to making one good mirror from Igman's rubber and Chapbaps' mirror glass which needed grinding down to size. No more Russian Roulette manoeuvres for me down the dual carriageways!
