307 SW windscreen grille

Unread post by 309SRi C5 II »

There is a grille at the bottom corners of my 307 SW windscreen.
They have split and the the edge that sits against the glass is curling up and not sealing.
I have searched and not been able to find any parts diagram that shows them except for the one posted below. It came from another forum but has no link to its origin.
The parts are NOT circled in red, but the parts required are the corner grilles that fit in at each end of part#10.

Can anyone direct me to these parts that the two arrows point to. Parts #11.

A parts diagram with link or a Peugeot part number or anything that can help me find a pair would be a big help.
I am even having trouble with a common name for these so that I can search more thoroughly.

Welcome along

We don't currently have access to the live parts database, but there is an off line version someone has - post up the VIN (it will auto hide) and someone may be able to look it up.

However, my guess is that 11 is fixings and the grilles were only available as part of the full scuttle - I say were as most like these are no longer availalble new. A breaker may be your only option (or 3-D printer?) - but that may be a challenge in NZ - and possibly here too as most of these will have been scrapped by now... What year is it?

You asked for 307, but I guess you meant 309?

Does this help?

Thanks for the responses.
The 8251 numbers are familiar with searches I have done, but they a nonexistent as far as I can see.
It is a 2007 model. French plastics from that period seem to have all been used up.

The cowls are a fairly simple two dimension curve so I will look at cutting the shape in expanded aluminium sheet with some form of plastic edging. Fastening to the screen and other appropriate spots with silicon sealer should hold it in place. That should deflect and cast off fine leaf litter that has been accumulating under the splits and curls of the aged plastic cowls.

There are several on Ebay breaking in the UK, and the panels are in good condition - ours are just attacked by the salt from underneath, not the sun from above! I dare say shipping to NZ may be an issue....
