Ok so who is local to brum?
I need a bit of help, basically, I'm a tard and had to get the nad motd, and it failed. Of course.
I only planned being up here till yesterday, so I didn't bring any tools or nowt with me.
So, can anyone help me out by lending me some tools and a hand to go to a breakers and get a 106 rear beam?
Doesn't have to be right away, weekend is best really incase I don't get sacked this week....

Dude - how come you ain't asked me?
I've got the tools and some and live just south of Brum. Can't give you much physical help cos of my hands but excellent supervisory skills and have been known to come up with practical solutions to problems as I'm sure R45 ODV will confirm.
Also know where there's a few damn good specialist pug breakers round the Midlands and chucking a beam in my car - well lets just say it won't be the first time.
td_dan is a good shout though and is well handy on the spanners.

Right there are these 2 places that although they are not strictly Central Birmingham area they specialise in what you're after.......
Citroen and Peugeot
Units 2&3 Perry St
Wednesbury??
01215020502
Swan St Salvage
Swan House
Swan St
Wolverhampton
01902351993 and I may have found another place but will have to ring them and let you know if they are still trading but if they are it's a mega bonus for us midlands members cos they do beam lowering too
