DeanY Posted May 14, 2022 Share Posted May 14, 2022 Any chance you have the plastic hooks that attach the parcel shelf lift strings to the rear hatch? Or anyone know where you can get them/similar? I bought the hatch at Mathewsons recently and all I can afford 😉 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The lad making those is doing it for a bit of fun. If he won’t make me a batch of them, I’m going to ask to buy his files on them so I can get them made somewhere else. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m thinking out loud as I don’t have any knowledge in this field, but would it also be possible to make a set of parts all at the same time - like an Airfix kit?

If I knew what I was doing with a 3D scanner and printer I’d be making them already, however I’m utterly shite at technology and would end up launching a sledge hammer through it before it got out of the box. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Am running out of ideas It would be good if they were. I think either Andrew or Kevin Abbot did a great write up with pics involving a cut threaded bar & strong glue but I can’t find it in the electrical section & the search function on the forum can be a bit poor.
