    It is still holding out at present, hopefully the new part should be here tomorrow for the swap.

    Oh my...

    " You don't wanna do it like that "

    Where is the duck tape? Surely a proper job needs duck tape?

    2 tools in my toolbox a hammer and duck tape. If it moves tape it, If it doesnt
    move hit it until it does then realise that it shouldnt move after all and tape it.

    Happy motoring :)

    Sorry, i have to elaborate on this.

    The two tools you need are duct tape and WD40

    If it moves and shouldn't - use duck tape
    if it doesn't move and should use WD40

    There is of course the addage - If it doesn't fit, Force it. If it still doesn't fit, you need a bigger hammer

    Ta Dah!

    A bit of fiddling around and the broken part is replaced. I have used 5.5mm brake line as a replacement hose and used hose clips to keep in place.
