Perry's Of Bolton - Screw U too.

your not alone, same for any main dealer, ive ordered clips, screws ect for customers & they've come in bags of 5's 10's even though i only want 1 & they wont split a bag. nowt you can do about it im afraid.

Five or 10 is reasonable, but refusing even to order them is different. I was so disgusted I just walked

Zozzer ( snipped-for-privacy@B2yonder.co) gurgled happily, sounding much like they were saying :

Go and register at

(don't forget that a Boxer's the same as a Relay/Jumper) and see what it says about availability. Armed with a part number, ring around Cit, Pug & Fiat (Ducato) dealers - or just order a bag of 'em if they're not expensive. ... or just shove any ol' self tapper in there...

He didn't refuse to order them, you chose not to have them ordered because you didn't want to pay for the quantity they were sold in. There is a big difference. He would have ordered the screws for you no problem. I doubt your tiny order will make them bankrupt. If you had ANY common sense you would have gone to B&Q and looked for a similar one, or as the man suggested to look at home. Are you sure you should be driving something like that on your own! Make sure it has a satellite internet connection in case you need to post each time something happens.

What kind of screw is it? It would help to mention why it's so special that only your dealer can supply it. Presumably your camper is out of warranty by now...

My local VW dealers will sell me individual screws and clips. There's no nicking one out of a scrap car when they're all 15 years old and rusted to hell (in this case, screws fixing the boot "plinth" on). Far more cost in time than a quid or two at the dealer.

Or B&Q or Screwfix. It's only a screw after all, what does it matter what it looks like?
