Title: parcel shelf hanger (the nipple shaped piece)
Post by: hugh jass on October 30, 2011, 10:43:45 am

  Both of the plastic hangers are now broken and Im having no luck finding replacements.
  Is there a quick fix for this  :happy2:
 Or perhaps someone has one or two lying around :happy2:

they are plastic welded from the rear... you have to buy the complete surround

One of mine broke a few years ago, got a replacement one new on eBay for about a quid, however it always slips out most of the way.

I'd imagine if you have two that don't sit properly they won't do any sort of reliable job and as JONM mentioned you'd be better off getting the surround.

Just checked mine and your nipple looks anything like that I would suggest a visit to the doctors!  :laugh:

I was looking through as you do... I knew someone was after one, but it took a while to figure out which forum  :happy2:
