Anyone have one of these? Shimana M732 Plastic Cover

[Moto]

My pride & joy 1992 Pro-Carbon mtb is off the road because I can't find a spare part. It has Shimano XT BR-M732 cantilever brakes and the plastic spring cover exploded last week. I can buy a full unit off ebay for £50 but seems daft to scrap a full unit for a plastic cover. I don't suppose anyone has a spare one lying in that box of bits in the shed?

It's just the plastic cover on the left of the photo's that is needed.

Thx

Tell you later.

I've got a Shimano cap, but it's slightly different to yours, it doesn't have the pip on the side...

Gazza. Thx for looking, really appreciated. I got a similar Shimano one from a local bike shop this pm but like yours it doesn't have the pointed bit and it's slightly shallower. I think it's from the M730 (slightly earlier design). I'm going to try it in the morning to see if it works as a usable stop gap - fingers crossed, until I can find the correct one. Thanks again but I am a bit smitten with my bike so desperate to keep it as original so will keep looking.

Cheers Moto

Gazza,

I try to avoid Facebook as I don't find it makes much sense to me - either it's totally illogical or I am! PH on the other hand seems totally straight forward and logical.
