Someone replied on a Vectra forum about the flap size on the Vectra-C. it is larger than the Astra-J, so bang goes that idea.
Astra-J 187 x 72 mm.
Vectra-C 200 x 85 mm.
I've tried gluing the snapped part back in place again with superglue, but this time also leaving the pin in to act as a larger surface area for the glue to adhere too. I've then carefully run a soldering iron around the crack to heat weld it for a stronger bond.
Only problem I've got now is refitting the flap. I can get the repaired side back in, but then have insert the pin on the other side. I've already lost the original pin within the sun visor somewhere and had to make a couple more from some welding rod. Will have another go later.
