I have checked out EBay and the size I think I need seems to be in short supply .Before I order I will dismantle to affirm the correct size.Thanks for the adhesive ideas.

I can't remember his trading name, but Club member Luke Bull regularly advertises in every FN as his little firm cuts/makes mirror glass to any size. I wonder if he could cut the shape you require in clear glass? (Or, indeed, whether the silvering could be removed?)

Unfortunately it is convex glass,not so easy .
When Luke first got his A40 we had many long chats over the phone sorting out his problems.Not heard from him for some time now.
