Brake back plates/dust shields

Rich 264 · Oct 18th, 2005, 19:58

Anyone know where to get new brake back plates at a sensible price?

I've tried a few of the obvious suppliers and the only ones which listed them wanted ridiculous money for what is basically 4 round pieces of pressed mild steel!

Cheers

I've always sourced them from breakers. At present there are quite a lot being broken that are in good condition. Now's the time to stockpile good secondhand parts before they all go - a 240 is becoming a rarer sight on the road now.

Hi Mike,

Do you know of any 240 saloons in your local breakers yards. I am converting from tan to black interior and need the plastic panels.

Cheers

Ian
