I'm trying to find the hose/cable clamps that attach to the air filter housing on an M20 on realoem but am drawing a blank, can anyone help? Cheers.

As in the big jubilee clips? I managed to pick up some from a local hardware shop for a couple of quid.

2 Years on and they show no signs of having a problem.

No, there's a plastic clamp that holds the hose that runs to the header tank and another that holds the loom going to the relay housing by the left turret. Both of them push into the air filter housing.
