Anti-rattle springs

Metro_Si Posted 4/2/2006 9:07 AM (#107022) Subject: Anti-rattle springs Elite Veteran Posts: 872 Location: Wiltshire My anti-rattle springs are badly corroded and one is missing a hook, unfortunately the new pads did not come with any replacements. Should I just fit them anyway or try and get some new ones? Are these available separately from rover/motor factors? TIA Alex.
