His doner vehicle seems to have all the useful parts missing

Anyway in Wales it's the law to redistribute small spares for the less well off, especially at this time of year

I found this out when I bought a second hand washer pump. It worked for a few months, and failed, so I had to buy a new one anyway.

You just don't know how they have been used and how often.

£35 does seem a bit steep, but if you need it...

This is only the contact block, and not the barrel, if I remember from earlier posts.

Anyway, I thought you had a donor vehicle for parts.

£35 sounds abit steep but u no it will last another 10 - 12 years then that is cheap
he has but i would bet that switch has gone to. so he is looking to buy another s/h switch

What's wrong with tights ? I find them very beneficial up the scrappy, it's always perishing up there

Mind you I hate when me hairs start poking through

I used a pair of tights as a DIY airfilter once, duct taped them over the air intake hose on the tigra we had as a auto test car

We are resourceful here

I think if I can't find a good contact, I'll just get the 35 quid one, as with it being new, there's no worry of breakage after 5 uses

If you get a second hand one, it may well be as old, as used and as knackered as your existing one. Bite the bullet and get a new one.
