The latch broke on my centre console, not happy:mad:

Lots of new lids on eBay for D2s but not D3s.

Has anyone needed to replace theirs and where did you find it?

Where did it break?

I recently had mine break on my P38A but I repaired it. If it's made of ABS, maybe this will work.

I'll post some pics in that thread later.

I bought one from Duckworths a couple of years ago. Can't remember how much but it was cheaper than expected. Can dig up the invoice later if you are interested.

However, I still have the old one. The top vinyl is split and its green not black, but the latch is ok. Its yours if you want it.

Cheers,
Jon

Thank you, but the end of the latch has come out of its housing and a bit seems to be missing as I can't see how to get it to go back in again.

Thank you will look at Duckworths. My interior is light beige so thank you for the offer but I will try to get it to match.

No worries. Thought you might be able to swap the latches or the cover. Also note the part no's are different for different colour interiors.

Cheers,
