Cooper's is on Liversey Street (round the back of Owlerton "Stadium").

The one near Meadowhall was probably Barrow Road, but I was recently informed they had closed:(.

You are so correct... many thanks. There you go a scrapyard to raid

loads of breaker's yards in sheffield, and also, would a cap from a similar age ford fiesta fit? cos if so there'll be plenty of fiestas in the graveyards!

Don't forget if you get a second hand cap or a non Ford one you will have an extra key on your keyring.

Maybe this wont bother you, suppose it depends if you would rather save £30 or so.

Try Lower Don Valley (around Attercliffe): a large number of parts shops, breakers yards, and scrap metal merchants. Bound to turn up something inexpensive.
