Another question... rare parts?

[plfrench]

Another day, another question!

Are there any Chimaera parts that are now becoming really hard / impossible to get hold of?

Just thinking if I go to look at a car that appears to need something minor doing like a rear window which sounds quite minor but actually turns out to be a nightmare to sort.

Thanks.

I noticed that the steering column UJs were becoming difficult to source. There are parts like original manifolds and Y piece that aren't produced anymore but aftermarket options are better than the OEMs so no issue there

Power steering racks, but you can replace with a Scooby rack so even that is replaceable

Door mirrors are off a redundant Citroen, but alternatives are available.

Headlights - a cracked lens or dull reflector would not seem to be a big problem, but could cost quite a few hundred quid to get sorted.

Thanks guys, great information as always!

Isn't one of the two types of differential now difficult or impossible to rebuild due to (lack of) availability of parts?
