Rocker covers

Hi
How many variations are there with the rocker covers ?. I know the shape cannot vary but the vent can be in different locations ?. Also - the vent pipe - is this a press fit ?. Replies eagerly awaited.

Daimler SP250 bonnet catch

Hi
Long shot - anyone got a spare bonnet catch - the bit the bonnet catch slots into i.e. the bit attached to the body not the bonnet - mine is a bit uneven & I would like to try a different one.
Thanks !
