Rare parts

Does anyone know where I can get a couple of flair loops ? Mine are looking a bit tatty and I'd like to replace them before the Croft weekend. According to my notes they were fitted to cars built in 1990 between March and May on the assumption that crash regs would require improved rear restraints.

What are flair loops? Sounds like a 70's fashion accessory.

They're mounted in the passenger footwell to improve bracing in the event of a frontal impact, allegedly

you could always use the spare flair loops which lotus, in typically mad fashion, stashed behind the pedal box which is found below the dash on the drivers side.
ps common sense is not listed in the lotus parts manual.

It's in the price-list:

Seems cheap to me.
