Wanted: S1 Motorsport engine cover hinge parts

Hi Guys,

I’d like the option to fit a Motorsport Elise style vented engine cover to my Exige, as sold on eBay etc. I don’t want to add additional fittings to the rear clam or have any external fastenings on show. I found this on the net…

…and identified parts 2/5/8 and 25 as the parts I need to make it happen. I’ve emailed the parts dept at Bell and Covill and assume they have no staff as I’ve not heard anything back from them, so wonder if anyone can help me out.

Thanks in advance,
Kurt B

Oh, and Mrs B is using the words “reliable” and “I love it” when talking about the Exige…will I have a problem getting the keys off her when I get home?!

Drop a pm to JSR as they were hatching a plan along the lines of what you’re thinking…

Yes, we have the inner piece from an original Exige engine cover. This is the piece that the hinge bolts onto and the fixing at the bottom to keep the engine cover closed also fixes to it.

We are going to get some of these moulded, so people can bond a motorsport type engine cover to it and retain the OE hinge and closing mechanism.

Call John, he is the man in the know.

Hey that’s a great idea :wink:

Thank you Sean, that’s exactly what I’d like. PM on the way
