Default Rear light Rover 75 Tourer

Can anyone repair the rear light LH side on my Rover 75 tourer?
There are none for sale anywhere and cant find a secondhand one either that is complete.
Mine is taped in.
The clips screws are broken and one at the top where it has broken has made a hole.
( I bought it like that ).
I am not able to do repairs myself.
Willing to pay and travel if not to far away.
I am near Leigh-on-sea Essex.

I cannot help with anyone to do the work - but there are rear cluster repair kits on e bay which i have used on my old ZTT. Suggest you purchase a kit and ask a mechanic to fit. Jack who makes these was going to stop doing them so good to see some back up for sale.

If at all possible, please post a good quality, in focus photo or two showing the problem area, this way we would be in a better position to offer the most appropriate advice.

Hi Peter.
When you say LH i presume you mean near side passenger rear light cluster.

There are also a couple of tourers in the for sale section spares or repair, maybe they would just sell you the light ?
