Battery + cable Lucas block

[iani]

The positive lead from the battery that runs to the starter motor has a Lucas block which covers the alternator connector block. Does anyone know of a source of this part? I bought a replacement positive lead from Wards that came with this part but as that was the only part I really needed to change I have put the new block on my old wiring, I'd like to obtain another one to keep my new part as a usable spare?

Do you mean the connector at the bottom of this page?

No Kevin, I mean the block that has the screw through it that secures to the inner wing, below the screen wash bottle.

Can somebody post a picture of this fitted please as Iam about to refit min, and was allways a little unsure if it was correct, it allways worked but never looked right, mine just had a loop of brown wire connecting the two terminals so I couldnt much see the point.

cheers

Mine doesnt seem to resemble that much, maybe time to spend even more money!
That black square in the middle, would that be where you connect the brown wires to the alternator to?

I think this is the part you're looking for, no idea where they might be available from, never seen them for saleP1010372.JPG

Yes Steve that's the part. If you buy a new battery cable from Wards it comes with one so they must be available but from where I don't know.

Looks like it's probably a similar part but it doesn't look right, the Lucas on provides some protection for the bared cables at this point.
