Folks,

I have the Belkin case for the Toshiba and managed to hook it on the steering wheel in a graceful exit maneuver.

The wheel was stronger than the plastic clip.

Are there any replacement clips out there?

I did not see any at Belkin.com.

Wonder if the ebcase w/clip would fit. But I hate to buy one to find out that it doesn't.

Any suggestions?

Would a belt clip from a mobile phone case work? You can get them just about anywhere.

FB - Nice try on the Avatar - it's unique, it's to the point and it's better than none. :D

My vote: Keep it!

Toolbear - check your local Radio Shack - I believe they have a couple of different clips that should work.

Also - you may want to consider a different car if that steering wheel keeps causing you problems. :D

I had the same problem and contacted Belkin only to be told that the case had to be RMAd to put a new clip on. I then turned to this forum and was told that Wal-Mart carries an almost identical clip for the Belkin cell phone cases. I bought one and it fits a little looser than the original which I find to be an advantage. It costs around $6-7.

Luke:

I am off to Wal Mart via Radio Shack, so we shall see what happens.

Thanks for the tip.
