Seat Leather fixings

I have been given a pair of X308 front seats. The leather is separate from the base and the back.

I seem to remember that there are metal spring clips that hold parts of the leather to the metal frame. These are missing.
Does anyone have any going spare? Or can someone tell me where I can get some.
Thanks. Bill W.

Have used plastic zip ties when stuck, but you can get clips on ebay.

Hi Bill,

Jaguar still lists those clips as available. Here's the parts diagram from jaguarclassicparts.com:

If you search google for "auto upholstery" and "U clips," or "U style clips" you will probably find what you need from auto upholstery suppliers.

Cheers,

Don
