Cover for the windscreen water container

Post by surveysteve » Mon Feb 18, 2013 1:28 pm

Dropped my one down into the engine bay the other day  :blink:
With the size of my hands and the lack of space, there aint any chance of me getting it back.
Do any of you out there have an Ebay link for a replacement?
Looked on RealOEM and it says that its discontinued.

I had one missing for a while, so until i got a replacement from a breakers yard, i just used a small piece of plastic and secure in place with a rubber band to stop and gunk getting in.

Lad I know who used to work for BMW here in Aberdeen said to try the parts dept.
Called them and it's only £3.00 !!
Makes a change for BMW. Thought it would cost a lot more than that  :D
