X2/Phase Deux Xantia bonnet

svip · Post by **svip** » 05 Dec 2016, 11:34

I am personally looking for a bonnet for my X2/Phase Deux Xantia, because my own one is full of rust. I notice that Taros Trade has a bonnet on sale, although, from the picture it appears to be missing the grille. Is the grille an extra part on the bonnet? Because quite frankly, that's the part of my bonnet that's full of rust.

However, I hate to be too suspicious, but I wonder if anyone here had had any experience ordering from Taros Trade (tarostrade.com). They are apparently based in Bulgaria and have quite a bit of Citroën parts on sale, and I can't seem to find any mention of them in these forums.

Here is the diagram for the Grille - if you need the part numbers, just let me know which numbers on the diagram you need the info for.

Ah, OK. Thanks. I was just confused by the picture for the X2 bonnet on the Taros Trade site, because they appear to be using a X1 picture for both bonnets, even though the X2 bonnet has a dip that the X1 bonnet doesn't.

A lot of these sites can't be bothered to do their research and use generic stock photos - not very helpful to prospective buyers I know!

I see. Do you know of any dealers that might have this bonnet in stock? And would it be advisable to drive there to get that, considering how difficult it is to send without it getting dented? And somewhere preferably close to Copenhagen, Denmark.

Which part? You say bonnet, but I thought you meant grille? I can post up the bonnet diagram if that's what you want?

Sorry, if I was being imprecise. I am looking for an X2 bonnet without rust and dents. It was just the pictures on the website that confused me about the grille. I believe the part number is 7901G8.

Yes that's the correct part.
Have a look at these people:-

I've already written Bart Ebben, I look forward to his reply. I was just curious whether there were some hideouts I've missed. But the bonnet in question looks good. Just hope it's rustless as well!

It looks in good nick and they should state the condition - but if you aren't happy or it is not as described, you should be able to return it - I suppose it comes down to availability and condition compared to the one you already have. Good luck.

Damnit, he didn't have it anymore. I better look elsewhere then.

(It's so confusing when they carry their own part numbers rather than the OE numbers.)

Do they ship to Denmark?
