Positive lead rubber end cover

Post by **jagnut66** » Sun Nov 18, 2012 10:41 pm

Hi,
Does anyone know where I can get one of these rubber end covers for the positive lead (pictured below) where it connects to the starter solenoid? Mine is on it's last legs and I can't find this type of cover anywhere.
Many thanks.

Pah - mine is tons worse than that!

Mine is on the opposite terminal to yours I think also.
Are they really needed? Is it there to stop you accidentally shorting out the solenoid?

You could perhaps adapt a piece of old heater hose to suit.

R S Components. Maybe Maplins.

Indeed, they look like the type of thing I'm after.
Many thanks.

Hi,
Went for the Holden Vintage ones in the end as they are made of a thicker rubber than the ones on eBay. Definitely an improvement.
(Link to the ones I chose below.)
Best wishes,
Mike.

Looks good to me. I would have chosen Holden also

DSN Classics also sell the rubber boot, item number ELC7011 at £1.02 each (ex VAT and p&p). see

and scroll towards the bottom of the list.

Looks to be the same type as I got from Holden, always good to have more options, hopefully others in need will find the links of use.
But I've got mine already now though, so for me it's a bit like buses.....................................
Just goes to show that I should of asked on here in the first place.
Best wishes,
Mike.
