Despite my best efforts to have my full new set returned to me I've had no joy. Consequently I'm now looking for a full set of Autoplas louvres clips, unless anyone knows a suitable alternative for retaining them. There's two types in each pack, one is an adhesive pad which clips into a retaining hole on the louvre and the 2nd is a bracket which fits, I believe, under the rubber seal then clips into the louvres. I guess I could use adhehesives but I'd loath to and would rather do it properly. Any help appreciated

Not the most helpful of posts I know, but I am on the search for Autoplas information. I have an Autoplas rear and side louvres but have no idea what car it's for! So if I find any information / sources / parts on my travels I shall let you know. If you find any info would you let me know? My brother called Autoplas but they destroyed all their old catalogues and information a few years ago.

I've got one of the rear louvres for my Clubman, but the clips are homemade ones by the previous owner. I can get you a close up photo of them if you wanted to try and make a copy of them? They go under the rubber seal and bolt onto the louvre IIRC.

I'll email them and see if they're in a more helpful mood! ;D Can't recall if this one has the clips with it or not... the back louvre doesn't but the side ones might.

Haha, this is awesome. I emailed Autoplas as they are now with my enquiry yesterday and a very nice lady called Jenny said that she'd send someone out to look around and see if they had any. Today they got back and they found a new Dolomite Sprint fitting kit, for under 10 quid including postage! Result That's that sorted - thanks to everyone for their help though
