Yeah, i have a local garage that i take my car to. Little family run thing and always does me a decent price. Going to ring him in the morning, only problem, would it be possible to fix outside the garage, if not gonna need to tow the dam thing there.

No air bag by the way

with no airbag its a 10 minute job. Ask nicely and they might swing by on the way home and do it.

I'd agree, with a 1996 car worth £800 (or probably less on an insurance company's valuation), virtually any damage that requires time in a garage will result in a write-off.

You would be much better off getting some bits from a breaker/ebay breaker and having someone fit them.
