Thanks again for your response. A couple of bits.

1. Do you know of anyone who might store replacement plastic hinges. I thought one of them was a different shape with a shamphered top but have realised it has actually sheared which was why the cover came loose.
2. If not any ideas on any one who could possibly 3D print me one?
3.  On the cover assembly as an FYI I got quite frustratred trying to put it back together then I desicovered a curved ball that might help others. I  actually laid the spring so that the U shape actually lies towards the cover at 180 degrees from where it should finally sit. Fixing the end hinges with the sharp ends floating around I was then able to pull the U shaped bit through underneath whilst easing the two spiky ends into the narrow groves on the back of the cover. Then attaching the middle hinge last of all. Worked perfectly apart from me realising it was broken BUT didn’t require any fiddling with plier etc.
4. Thanks again for your previous guidance – Kind regards Jeremy Instone

Dillen,

Thank you that is excellent and so easy to read as well. A few glasses of vino now but I’m all set for the morning and lesson learnt. I won’t be unscrewing anything else until I’ve taken photos and had a very good look at this forum

Regards Jeremy
