I might have one or two left.
Do you also need the receptical for them?

 

No, no receptacle needed. Just the turnbuckles. I would take one or two. Whatever you have.

Rick

 

Rick,
I'll take a look to see what I have.
Steve

 

Thanks Steve.

 

Rick,
These fasteners are called 1/4 turn fasteners and turnbuckles are a completely different animal.
I only found one that is actually made for the battery cover, but it is grey.
There are more 1/4 turn fasteners in my bins but are meant to be opened with a coin rather than fingers.
Some are coffee colored and some are black.
They have a smaller head and might require a different receptical.
I think all will need a retaining 'washer' to keep them with the battery cover.

 

I believe my use of turnbuckle is wrong. They were indeed 1/4-turn fasteners, grey, and opened with fingers. I'll take the one if you are willing. How much ? Where do you live ?
I think the finger style was used for the 95 and 96 years, and the coin/slotted was earlier (?)

 

Correct on all points.
I'm in Pacifica CA 94044.
You are welcome to generate your own paid shipping label and email it to me.
I highly recommend USPS Priority Flat Rate Small Box.
My email is steve@equiprx.net and there would be no charge.
I hope there will be other items I can help you out with.
Thanks,

Hi Steve

Thanks for your email. I don't know how to create a shipping label. But since it's such a small item, here is a suggestion: Your local Post Office usually carries those bubble pack type envelopes. Purchase a smaller size and just mail it to me by regular First Class Mail. That would likely be easier and less expensive. I can send you the cost for the envelope and mailing to your PayPal account as a Friend. Or I can PayPal you say $10.00 in advance to cover the cost. What do you think ?
My shipping address: Richard Russell, 518 Broadmoor Drive, Chesterfield, MO 63017.

Rick

 

Rick,
I have all the shipping supplies I need in my shop.
USPS Priority Flat Rate Small Box is recommended because the tracking and insurance is free.
I'll try to get it packed up before the regular pick up today.
Steve

 

Your label number is 9405503699300615321551.
Now I got to get it packed.

 

All packed up and ready for pick up.
My PP account is steve@equiprx.net but please use friends & family.
Thanks,
Steve

 

WOW!!! Thanks so much Steve. I only hope I can repay the favor at some point. Just let me know. How much should I send you ? I'll do it right now.

Rick

 

No problem, just think of me if you need any other parts.
$10 should cover the shipping.
Thanks,
Steve

 

$ sent. I'll let you know when the part arrives. Thanks again. These little retainers are as rare as hen's teeth.

Rick

 

Rick,
It just got picked up about 30 min ago and should be in the system.
Thanks for the PP.
Steve

 

Thanks again Steve. By the way, have you ever seen a mat, rubber or otherwise, that fits the bottom, flat portion of the trunk for these late model XJS's ?

Rick

 

Just the regular carpeted parts.
I have most of the boot carpeting in grey.
If you want something to protect the carpeting have you checked with Weathertech?

 

Hi again Steve. Don't need the grey trunk carpet. Just an aftermarket mat. But, since my last correspondence, I found a place. Just wanted something different than weather tech. Thanks.

Rick

 

Steve: Just received the fastener today. Thank you very much !!!!
