Bonnet release cable divider block sought

Leachim · 21st May 2018, 17:14

Hi Group,
I've just gone through the process of having to open the bonnet after the cable release lever failed.
I'm not out of the wood yet though, because the divider block appears to have disappeared entirely -- perhaps falling somewhere behind the black plastic wheel arch protection.
I simply have the rather flexible black plastic junction box, but not the divider block that goes inside.
What suggestions for sourcing a divider block in good condition? I am in the South of France, so not many breaker's yards with Rover 75s to cannibalise.
Or can I reasonably try to make one or have one made?
TIA
Leachim.

Hi Championdaddy,
Thought I'd sent a grateful PM but it seems to have disappeared into the ether. I'll try again.
