Drag 2 Battery Door

[phatbhoy]

Lost the magnet off my Drag2 battery door, and I do love my Drag. Had it for an age and just not prepared to give it up quite yet. Like all other V2's, the paint job is shockin' but I have grown used to it and it still has some life to give. Therefore, if any of you top apes out there have a dead Drag2 with an intact door I would be happy to pay postage and a breakers fee, if necessary,.........please?

@Mutley1 Well, possibly BUT, I was just trying to save face a bit, truth is the original magnet came out and I (inadvertently) superglued it back into the flush fitting the wrong way round, and it is now proving impossible to get back out; I have tried everything I can think of including heat and nail polish remover, but it is a super tight fit and nothing can get underneath the magnet to dissolve the super glue. Dick, I know but, I am sure some kind ape will have a deceased one lying around

If the door is metal just put it in a pan of boiling water for a few minutes - tale it out with pliers and prise the magnet out with a screwdriver.

Gluing magnets the wrong way round is my favourite fuck up. I've learned to mark the magnet with a dot of paint or permanent marker on the side I don't want to glue - and now I only fuck it up most of the time instead of every time.
