| Correct. The bumper shapes are slightly different and the tops are contoured accordingly. In addition to being "as rare as hen's teeth'

Many moons ago when this subject cropped up someone did manage to fabricate a washer cover. IIRC the material was cut from a video cassette case and moulded by warming with a warm air gun/hairdryer?. Maybe Tompion will remember! or even have a better 'bodge' up his sleeve

Not having something never stopped you working out a Bodge though Dave!. I just knew you'd have some knowledge!. The photo in the link shows clearly the particular shape in that example.

Congratulations on finding those links Mike. What a pity we don't hear from Stuart (Highlander) these days.

The alternative looks like fitting a pair from some other vehicle. The ones on the Freelander 2 look like they may fit with a bit of additional work and seem to be quite reasonable we shall see. Geoff

Any chance of a pic? The link has several examples, both of mine have gone missing so I need something to compare. Geoff
