Hi Guys, Does anyone know where I can get a replacement engine lid hinge panel for a '78 bay (single screw), if not will an earlier engine lid fit if I was to use the earlier repair panel, which seems to be plentiful. Mine is beyond rescue and needs replacing, I don't currently have an engine lid so that's not an issue, I've searched all the usual sources, but no look, I've even contacted JK, but they don't do one and couldn't suggest anyone who would . Thanks in advance.
Coolair list one for 1975 thro' 79 model years - I assume this is the single screw type hinge http://www.coolairvw.co.uk/Item/Sho...27D/T2_75-79_Rear_Engine_Lid_Hinge_Panel.html It doesn't say who made it, but I do know Autocraft panels are spot on
Engine lid hinge panel - Typ 2, 72>76 This is the one Autocraft do, the later ones only have one screw hole for the later hinge,
yep, our vans have one of each type! Although I do think the westy (77) will need one at some point but the 73 was only rotten where the engine lid hinged, we repaired it successfully!
