Exclamation parts search - anyone have an old/cracked/broken/unwanted rear tail-light?

I have a right rear tail-light that has a broken inner black plastic hook that keeps it snug in position (latches into the center reflector). Does anyone have an old broken rear tail light (can be either right or left side), so I can cut out the inner latch hook and epoxy it into my tail light?

Just thougth I'd check if anyone has one that still has the inner hook still intact the don't want anymore, for a good price. Thanks as always!

I think I still have my old rear lights - but it would obviously need shipping across the pond.

Hey Dave - how much do you think shipping might be in USD? I might hold out for a "local" one for a bit here....

OT but are you engaged!? I see a ring...

I'll try and find it this week, and see if I can find out what shipping would be.

No, not engaged. Just kind of "official".

I would think it better and very easy to build the latch out of a bit of aluminium .

Thanks Indy - you're right! I wasn't thinking along that line... but it looks like it will work very well indeed: a little epoxy and 1 retaining screw and it's back to normal. Thanks!
