looks like Rare Spares are getting their act together with this part. ive commented before on these.......i managed to get a NOS one years ago for $150 .... last year NOS one was on E bay bidding went to $1150. i bet lots of old VNs here could do with a new one

No matter what the price, you pay first, then find it a good fit or sh#t fit. Or wait for some revues? Hopefully good.

Will probably wait for reviews...too far to drive back to nearest Rares Spares to voice opinion on the product if it's bad lol

The ad says its still under developement. So, it may happen? But how much? If you need it, you need it.

Managed to get a genuine spare in box a few years ago. Gee at $1150 that's a good investment ,It can continue to stay in original box in garage.
Over the years I purchased one around 2001 for about $60 and the one in 2014 for around $140.

They are actually quite robust they just don't like being moved. If your really careful especially with the steel clips and side nets you can get them off with minimal cracking.
I'd be interested to see how good and close to original the rares part is? Remember too when fitting initially they need a little persuasion on the sides to fit so that won't be a reflection of the reproduction items fit.

Choose a day when you have patience to play with these..
