Morning all. I am trying to source the 4 square screw holders that the 4 screws go into that holds the inlet and outlet pipes into the matrix. I have a 93 cooper. The base of the inlet and outlet pipes were leaking. They had been on for so long the screws wouldn't come out, so had to be cut out, ruining the screws etc. I can't source these holders anywhere. All the well known big mini companies don't stock them, or even the smaller ones. Does anyone have any laying around? Or know of someone who stocks them? I'm out of ideas! Thanks for reading.

Hi,

Do they slot into the  plastic tank on the matrix?

As it's just nuts and bolts can't you just get some from the local fastener company or eBay?

Cheers  :proud:
