Expensive days cleaning

Hi All,

Sadly on cleaning my Archer the other day I steadied my hand on the upper door sill and my fingers went through the overhead console. The plastic is extremely thin and very brittle so I am now looking to replace it.

The part I need is No: 76496-12 which is the mounting for the dome light, speaker and night light including the rear/front air vent.

Piper are quoting a total cost of over £1000 which for a piece of very cheap plastic seems totally over the top. There are replica parts available in the States that are cheaper but before ordering them I would just like to know if anyone has knowledge of either a source in UK/Europe or any used item that might be recycled. I can get it painted to match so as long as it's sound.

Any help appreciated.
