Default HANS Post Anchor Spring

Moving HANS anchor from my expired helmet to a new helmet and the small black spring inside the anchor on one side has gone missing.

Is there a replacement option other than buying a new set of anchors?

I couldn’t find any replacement options, so I bought a new set.

I'd replace they anchors. This is a very expensive hobby and new anchors cost about what we spend to drive one lap. Critical piece of safety equipment.

That's what I'm figuring but never hurts to ask.

We usually have extra springs in 'stock' because I tend to lose them when I'm transferring anchors at the track for a customer...REALLY hard to find them when they hit the grass!!
If you're going to be at Sebring i should have one or two with us, though I'll check when I get to the store today to make sure I have some.

Thanks Bob, I ordered a new set of anchors and won't be at Sebring but if you happen to have one, I'd love to make the other set of anchors usable again. Just shoot me a PM if so.
