Help!! Cant find parts

[rtgleopaige]

Hi
I recently bought my 406 a whole 7 days ago. I now know it needs a new flexi for the exhaust and the 2x fan motor speed control resistors. I have had a look on euro parts and cant find much for them at all is their a reasonably priced parts dealer anybody knows of??
Im going to have to get the flexi done properly does anyone know how much this costs at a garage?
I can see im in for the long haul here so I better start learning!!
Thanks Kat

Tbh for the fan resistor you might be best to get one off ebay ,there something like £75 new so im told possibly £15 ish on ebay 2nd hand tho.
exhaust parts you shouid be able to get one off ebay new ,too,
to have flexi pipe fitted most probs £50 ish at a exhaust place best buying your own parts and get them to fit them they seem to add there own price to parts these days,

Thanks, I actually managed to get a resistor from the peugeot dealer for about £17, But I expect i told you the wrong part name, its like a little coil in an open casing behind the grill?? and I managed to get a whole front pipe from ebay for it for £69.99.
Put the resistor on yesterday and luckily enough we have fan!!
now all i have to do is find like the back plate thing behind the back brakes as it and the pins have all corroded and are making it squeak, asked at the main dealer wanted nearly £70 for a circular piece of tin! down to the scrap yard I go!
Thanks for your help
