Experts,Gentlemen, Ladies & others,
I was "reorganizing" my garage and came across a few parts left over from when I rebuilt my S2 Elan (which I had forgotten about) now as we have some of the best and brilliant Lotus minds on this forum, I give you the opportunity to identify these parts and show us who the true experts are!
I cant guarantee that they are Lotus parts but they were with the jigsaw that became my Elan........Gentlemen....start your engines!

Brian,
Never seen these things in either of my S4s- I'm guessing that they are something to do with the windows; or part of that bracket thing which holds your TV to the wall in the kitchen, maybe? :roll:

Cheers,
Pete.

Gush will know. :wink:

I'll guess 2 and 2a are seat belt brackets from an MG 1100.

Are 1 & 1a home-made under-dash trims?

The hook things are shims. On my S3 Elan they were used to shim the lower end of the window frames. They look somewhat thick, if so there may be multiples stuck together. The hang on the mounting bolts so you can tighen the bolts without having the shims come off.

1 and 1a kinda sort of look like the "trim extensions" that are bottom rear of the door openings/rear fender well.

2-2a - shims from doors that help poistion window hardware.

3-3a not sure on this one
