Hello Si & welcome to the forum 
Do you mean the acoustic cover over the engine, or the undertray? Either way, scrappy's the only sensible option, but get new fixings. The ones from Renaults are much better than the originals for the acoustic cover. Everybody uses tie-wraps for the undertray.

Hi, and welcome. I use the the normal fixings for the undertrays - the rear tray ones are fine, but the front tray (bolts into captive nuts) wear out every few years and need to be ground off and replaced. But I'm sure you could use tie-wraps. Regards, Springnuts.

Re: X reg peugeot 406 hdi estate
Yesterday I drove along the very same stretch of road where I lost my undertray in the snow.
I still miss it and wonder if it's ok........

Hi all and thanks for welcome!
yeah its the big cover which goes over top of engine, watching one on ebay at the moment! will get new fixings as mine are obviously missing and replacement comes without. my cd player also works somedays and others refuses to work or read a disc so think will have to get replacement for that too. such is life!
