Surely the price is close to what you'll pay at the local Prats counter?
That is of course if they're not secretly carbon fibre or gold lined...
How much are these new from Citroen then; anyone know as I can't get
onto Citroen's online parts database anymore. Seems I need a VAT number
to register again.

Hi Andrew,
You can register on the Citroen Parts thing again if you stick in any Valid VAT number. That's what I did and it works for me.
The covers are part # 96039326, and appear to be available at an eye watering £10.97 each including VAT!
Regards

Hi All
Been absent for a few days putting up new guttering, soffit and fascia boards while the weather holds. The soffit board clips into a plastic section that is virtually identical to the XM jacking point covers. Comes in 5 metre lengths for less than a couple of quid. Plenty of short off-cuts. Anyone want jacking point covers in white?

Chris maybe?
Actually, wouldn't there be a black fascia version too or am I thinking of the milk chocolate variety!?

Hi all,
When i spoke to my local citroen Dealer he said they were not available anymore so if they are half book price seems i have struck lucky.
