Guys & girls
I urgently need to replace the rear window lift channels on my 110 as they are totally rusted and the windows don't operate properly. The part number is MTC8478, however it's now obsolete, there's no pattern alternative, and even the likes of Blanchards etc don't have any.
Is there a workaround? Will an RRC equivalent (still available) fit, or can a front lifter channel (MTC8477) be adapted to fit?
Whilst I get that at some points parts become obsolete, these were still fitted until 2007, and a quick Google shows I'm not the first to ask this question. Amazed that the likes of Britpart etc haven't started making one.
So what's the workaround?
Thanks in advance
