Tailgate won't open - need spares
#1
I found that my tailgate wouldn't open (typical I had a full load at the local tip!) so took Berlingo to my local garage. Diagnosis is an electrical issue - water got in through broken bit of trim and that I need some new parts.
With official Citroën parts at £140 for new tailgate trim; £35 for new switch and £40 for new tailgate handle they think I should be able to get a better deal on eBay but I can't find anything! Any tips please?

Maybe not the correct one, but a complete tailgate might be cheaper option, and then take the remains to the tip? https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/114943776302?...OSwMHZhHlA~

Yes I looked at that option and there's a very promising looking one, but its in Perth about 400 miles away!

Nothing lost in asking them to take the parts off and keep the remains - which will be quite 'saleable' in their own right. Make a cheeky offer for the bits you need!
