NEIL W Posted July 3, 2014 Share Posted July 3, 2014 Looking for an original Plastic Washer Bottle Unit with pump too - think they are common to all Mantas but could be wrong ? Anyway it is for 1979 / 80 model 2.0 SR. Also looking to replace the wheel arch trim so looking for single items or a complete set in good condition plus any window trim stainless items. Will be down at Billing so we could swap parts for cash on the Sunday Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will be down at Billing so we could swap parts for cash on the Sunday There are two sizes/shapes of washer bottles that I know of on the "B" maybe more than two. and as for the wheel arch trims, " a set in good condition!!!" Got to go now Neil, I'm laughing to much!!! Edited July 3, 2014 by Julian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NEIL W Posted July 3, 2014 Author Share Posted July 3, 2014 Hopefully someone has broken a few Mantas & has even one single items in my 'wanted' list. Know what you mean about certain parts are impossible to find but they are out there if you ask - I found a brand new BL original in the packaging Alloy Cylinder head for my TR7 which were rarer than finding snow in the Sahara desert floor. I have contacted a local company who maybe able to bring back to life the wheel arch trim even when corroded & pitted - so need a spare set to fit to my car & sent mine off to try - might be a solution to the hen's teeth situation.

spiney_norman Posted July 3, 2014 Share Posted July 3, 2014 Is your washer bottle round or rectangular? Think I've got a couple of round ones somewhere! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NEIL W Posted July 3, 2014 Author Share Posted July 3, 2014 The previous owner fitted a replacement washer bottle unit which I would call 'a fit any car type ' & is too small for the space available on the driver's side inner wing area. The unit has the original square bracket & in the spares which came with the car a washer bottle fibreglass repaired but unserviceable. As I am new to Manta spares - I think I need a rectangular one - the car is a 1980 SR so I am hoping to see what others have a Billing to be 100 % sure or get an idea from experienced owners on the Forum. So my feeling is a round one may not be right but I will get back to you when I find out for sure. Neil Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NEIL W Posted July 7, 2014 Author Share Posted July 7, 2014 PM sent shug. Right next 'have you got some help" - I have a washer bottle now which has no pump. The hole at the bottle with a rubber seal appears quite big compared to the pumps on line. Has anyone got time to take a photo of the pump unit for a rectangular bottle as above ? Thanks Neil Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
