ZS MK2 Numberplate Bulb holder
Before I give Rim-yer-brother's my hard earned... Has anyone got a couple of MK2 Numberplate Bulb holders?
Rimmer's say this is the correct one: http://www.rimmerbros.co.uk/Item--i-XFC000160
But it doesn't look anything like the units I have sat in my bumper... then again the units i have don't fit! They just fall out and I can't do anything with them like changing bulbs etc...
Further, I spoke to my local MG Rover (ex) Dealer... who said it was a good part number (XFC000160) but since the picture is generic and my numberplate is listed as a MK1 (but only for the rear!!) he can't guarantee it will fit... - Do I risk ordering the wrong part???

XFC000160 is shown as the correct item for cars serial number 637209 onwards so if the number part of your vin is 637209 or higher then it will fit

No, hence my initial question... also you can see the loom has been cut and replaced with those spade connector crimp things...
So Ideally I need someone who is breaking a MK2 ZS Saloon! so I can get the bulb holders and a bit of wiring loom to repair this... Apparently any MK2 ZR, ZS, 25 or 45 will do!
