Loops

Post by das882 » Sat Mar 26, 2016 7:10 pm

Can anyone tell me what the 2 loops on both sides of my S2 Elise front crash box are for?? There was a piece of what looked like o ring material through one of them, I assume that it would of been some sort of band that held something.... but what!!!

They are on the front edge of the crash box, one on each front corner and the other from memory about 8" -10" in from that. I was maybe thinking that they might of been for holding the grille?? as mine was held in by tie wraps at the top.

Might have been to keep the indicator units from falling out previously.
The clips break meaning indicators pop off, stretched elastic hooked in a loop to the crash box is a fix, guide is on SELOC wiki for more info.

I would say that these are factory fitted, and judging by the state of some of the Clam bolts the front has never been off......and that would be the only way to drill the bracket holes as they are on the verticle return flange of the crash box.
I will try and suss out how to post a photo!
