I'm new here and was hoping to get a little involved trying to find some boot lid parts for my little (04) Diahatsu Copen which has been named 'Tenkei' 'either side of the hydraulic ram' boot mechanism sissiors stays it seems to have slightly buckled over the past year with all different workshops trying to fix the roof. Any idea's about how i would go about getting "new ones" easily see photos please. (not Gas Struts). Many Thanks T
Could try breakers in the FB spare parts group and on ebay for some 2nd hand Daihatsu Copen Spare Parts Oh nice, they're cheap new and in the uk, that's unusual! £16.79 each. Daihatsu Copen Tailgate/Boot Gas Strut
Thanks for the reply. New Parts please or properly reconditioned! Looking for steel mechanism with numbers on as seen in the photos please. Kind Regards T
For new parts, other than service or consumable items, you’ll need someone like SG Petch or an ex Daihatsu dealer near where you’re based. I think there’s around a 6 week shipping time. eBay lists a number of Copen being broken and it’s just a case of contacting the seller with details of what you want. Gaz is very helpful and I’ve had a few things from him which turned up promptly and were as described.
