Hi guys - helping the bro-in-law with his Metropolitan brakes.Stripped them all out and some dude in the past has lost the horseshoe clip which holds the rear wheel cylinder into the backing plate.Same system was used on Viva, Allegro etc.Anybody got one they dont want!

Don't think thats the right one - sounds more like a Triumph clip.The ones we need are a U shape.Don't have one in front of me at mo but about 45mm on the legs.Will grab one tomorrow and put up a pic.Hey thanks for looking though.

From memory (if same as viva) these were round in shape with three internal lugs & curved not flat (put tension on & held wheel cylinder firmly onto backing plate). If sounds same let me know as I'm sure I've got an new old stock Vauxhall one here in a box - will have a dig for it tomorrow night if you still need it
