Sorry, misunderstood you. Though you were talking about the triangular bits of plastic on the inside of the door mirror. The clips are always breaking on those.

Not sure I've got any exterior trim that's of use to you but I'll try and remember to look next time I'm in the garage as I tend to forget what I've still got and what I threw out.

I'm in Wymondham btw.

I had it done at my other halves work. (Duff Morgans in Norwich) Although there is and awesome sprayer in Watton that I have just found out about but you would have to check his availability as hes quite busy.
