The C5 I just restored for John hasn't got a strap, so he might like me to fit one on his ?

Hi all just made some more battery clips/straps for sale and they are better than the first lot take a look ....



And now they are complete .

What you get are the items below and they will fit the largest battery that you can  place in the C5 .



The only thing is that you must have the plastic loop ring under the seat fastened to the body if not you can fit a cable tie in it's place .Then just clip the dog clip on to it

That looks great Chas  ;D

There can't be many more parts that you can't reproduce now... Soon you'll be churning out brand new C5s from that factory at the bottom of your garden!
