A prety mundane question.

I cleaned up my wheel arches yesterday (hopefully sorting out a few niggles) and found that some of the clips that hold the wheel-arch liner had been lost. One of the niggles I'm trying to fix is a noise like a loose flappy thing from flapsville under the car when I go over every small road bump. Hence trying to eliminate the possible wheel liners loosness.

The clips look to be 8mm in diameter and there are loads of different types on eBay. None that I can find are identical to the VXR8's.

Examples on eBay are http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/400707621759?_trksid=p20... OR http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/200971910300?_trksid=p20... OR http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/181915944428?_trksid=p20... Others types too.

Are they all much of a muchness? Are any particularly better?

Thanks, Steve

Cheers, Just ordered some from eBay.

Steering arms have been recently changed; so I am not suspecting them.
