It never ceases to amaze what crap people think they can palm off on ebay these days!

And the environmentallists worry about too much landfill???

What do them things do. You see them on some bx hatches but not all. Was it a option thing.

It's near me, i might make the chap a cheeky low offer as it does look pretty buggered. With the right adhesive, it might go back together & be just about strong enough.

Paul, they are just a large reflector, they kinda look nice to some of us & a mint unbust one would be great, but are there any & are they a sensible price, so perhaps the next best thing are these knackered one's

I was wondering if anyone knows what they're called in French?

Hi Matt,
That must be a new type of REFLECTIVE Body filler then

Which I've certainly have not seen or come across, where might this be obtainable or supplied from (Just in I may need some one day)

On a serious note I've made up missing rear light bit's of hard to source rear lamp lenses by cutting/shaping the missing broken piece by using a similar/donor lense and then using Super Glue to glue into place.
The finished end result (If you take your time to cut and shape) didn't look too out of place !

So now you know how to fix it Matt, Go for it !

Merde! Une duplication!!!

Its very easy to make reflective body filler, got a load of old reflectors, crush them up & put the sparkly dust into the filler & once it sets, it's reflective

Good idea about cutting up some appropriate other lenses to match the missing bits

This all obviously depends on me securing said part & if i don't get outbid

tbh, i'm not going to pay a fiver for that, i'm going in cheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeap

Matt,
It's got to be worth at least 99p and free local pick on your way home, bargain !
