Yes working out about £150 to get one. I mean I can see the principle but if say a belt failed and strikes it which then pushes the guard itself into the timing belt then it hasn’t really sorted the problem. It is only fitted at one end which seems to offer no support meaning it could be easily bent inwards but I’ve not actually seen one.
