Firstly double check along to top of the inside of the hatch. many peeps have missed it being clipped away up there.


Failing that - short term, stick your location up. Someone local may well pop round.

Long term & if you can't track down a second hand one - they are available new from the Club Shop http://www.igmaynard.co.uk/bongo/mercha ... m#Exterior

Looking back through your past posts, it looks like you are around Bordon Hants . . . .

Can any locals help?
