As in the title. Fiat Panda Mylife 2011 it's the rear squab plastic piece that goes down to the sill. I don't know what it's actual designation is, but it is just inside the driver's side rear door. If anyone has a scrapped Panda or know where there is one available I'd be grateful. This panda has just clocked 40,000 miles and is in perfect condition, no damage, kept garaged and this is the only flaw with it. I'm in Poole, Dorset.

That's got uh hurt eh, looks like a tricky piece to replace as well. Probably cheap wine right.
Anyway remain confident.
 
Pop a knife in the gap and see if the crack will meet. If yes, re-crack it, get a bead of super glue in there and reverse process. It's not a high stress piece (unless someone lobs a bottle at it!) so will be fine in the interim, I'd think.
 

£150 new on a quick search

Secondhand or glue

Be aware the plastics changed colour, around 2009
Also the part will be different depend on the seat type

Sliding
Split

And so on


I normally take plastic bits off first and the read the part number, molded into the back not something I have had to replace
