Hi Folks,

Someone one of these 'covers' was either lost/misplaced. Is there anywhere you can buy something like this or do I need to go and buy a whole new toilet seat?

You will most likely need to buy the whole seat. But i wonder can you do something like sweat a plastic straw onto the bar and clip it. It will then do a while till you can get the seat.

I'VE USED THE CAP FROM A BALLPOINT PEN IN THE PAST TO SOLVE THIS SAME PROBLEM AND MANY YEARS LATER REPLACED THE WHOLE THING.
