    Obviously certain parts you have to buy from a Ford stealer. I was quoted £22.37 for a rear brake cylinder last week but bought one for £6.81 from a motor factors. Quite a mark up!

    still its hardly breaking the bank is it?
    im guessing the one from the motor factors wasnt a genuine ford one?
    ford parts compared to other manufacturers are fairly priced.

    True it was made by Quinton Hazell but I don't use "genuine ford oil". Who supplies that to Ford?

    i had this and replaced the cowl under the screen with the newer part and new seals and all has been fine since
    also worth getting all new fixings for the cowl
    this usually happens after you have a screen replaced
    remember it is nice to be important
    but more important to be nice ;)
