Lotus Elan and Lotus Elan Plus 2 Forums

Hi All,
I'm looking for an oddball part on my S3 Elan couple (the ally vent grill on the LH side 'B' pillar) and I think that I'm going to have to pay dealer's prices.

The only person that I know of who keeps used parts in stock is Mrs. Miller but she doesn't have one. If you know of a dealer that keep used parts, please add their name to this thread. Thanks.

Best,
Desperate in Ontario, Canada.

I have a vague memory that this part was sourced from another British car of the era, where it was located in front of the windscreen as a heater inlet....but can't for the life of me remember what the source car was....

He has helped me in the past find an old bench seat for my Caterham. He has a lot of obscure Lotus spares.
I do know he is not back until the 13th as I am after a couple of bits but he is answering emails at the moment

The alloy airflow vent grille on an S3 is not the same as the later Sprint/ +2 grille. It is much more stylish! and (i believe) unique to the Elan. It sounds like Bluesbrother30 has the correct items though.

Hi All,
After calling a bunch o' dealers in the UK and getting the story on the early S3 Airflow vents (very hard to find, expen$ive) I contacted Mike and acquired his (off a coupe that is now a roadster ?).

Thanks for all your help.
