Wanted - batter cover + boot plinth
Hi,
Has anyone got a battery cover for sale. Also after a chrome booth plinth, the type with ROVER written across it. I do already have a boot plinth but the lugs are snapped. Has anyone ever succeeded with a repair on these? Many thanks, Jim |

Yes, I saw that. I think it starts at £15. Might bid but certainly won't spend more than that.

A quick update. Boot plinth repaired. I drilled out a hole where there was a plastic dowel. I've then screwed in a stainless steel bolt with a filed down head. I might superglue in this bolt for extra strength. Not a bad repair.
I'll get a battery cover from Rimmers. One question though. I've owned two 75's and neither had a battery cover. Why is this? Do people change the battery and forget to refit or do they somehow fall off? |

If its the PPD Mk1 boot plinth that you're after, Holland314 has one on offer in the "items for sale" section. He's also a good bet for a battery cover.
