Hi all, thanks for your excellent responses, I have ended up purchasing a kit via ebay as mentioned by Chris G below as my mechanic said it looks the same as what has been removed so hopefully this will do the job & for £17.25 seemed worth having a gamble with! Will keep you updated as to whether this actually works as might be useful for some other owners out there. Unfortunately once the 2+2 has a full MOT is will have to be placed up for sale, so if anyone is looking for a stunning 2+2 let me know & I will send you all the info.
Cheers, Paul.
