Epoxy was too weak, had it plastic welded in the end which has stood up.

I have seen how you can fix plastic with Super Glue and Baking Soda. Sounds weird, but it seems to work.

Thankyou so much for your video tutorial. With it, I was able to replace a completely broken lid in my husbands VE ute. A bit tricky in the tight space behind the seats in a ute, I utilised a mirror that allowed me to see the 5 screws on the back plate. 🙂 pretty happy with myself, it all came together nicely with your help. 27.06.23

Thanks for this. Also the middle three lower screws can be left alone, they just hold that rectangular shelf thing. Makes it even easier.

Nice one bro, chur for that, and to the commenter re. the relevant rear screws. I lucked out hitting pick-a-part in the hutt, they had a few in there in various condish, charged me 9 bukka for a fully intact replacement. But like you I will def epoxy the old one's hinge as a back up as they are a common damage point/fault.

Thought I'd be able to replace the plastic hinges for under $10 getting them off Ebay. Jesus I was so wrong! I think that's what killed the production of Holden's in Australia is their way over pricing which is reflected onto their replacement parts too I see.

@@kiwibadger7826 Hi. I got the back sections of as you described, but unfortunaetly, I can see the underside of the power plug but not enough to get at it :( It still looks really hard to get at. There is a large plastic section that needs to be lifted of the top. What I have done is buy an External Power Plug with 10A inline fuse that connects direct to the battery in the boot. Not very convenient, but it charges my phone etc.
