Have yours got dowels in the centre? The 550 part may be the same but it may be slightly thicker for better cushioning, DS has 3 of those in stock. I did find a load of them the other day but I don't know yet whether they are spares or off my rebuild, I know my number plate bracket has them missing for instance. I doubt I have 6 spare either way. I'll have a look around, it's a very common part.

What's the solenoid part number, might be used on other models.

Can you measure the mounting rubbers Phil, I have some that have no dowels in (most likely mine off the rear number plate bracket) and some that do have a dowel but the dowel is longer than the rubber so it sticks out a little from it. No idea where they came from but I have been stripping some USA parts so they could have come from those. How thick are they and how long is the dowel.

Look similar and cheap enough for a punt

The rubber cover looks to be the same used on the end of the starter motor cable, might have one of those.

Pretty sure I bought some for my 400 a couple of years ago - could be mistaken holes are 6mm?

I don't think those fairing ones fit Roo iirc they are too small.

According to the pictures the metal insert internal hole is quoted as 6mm Ted

Might have been different ones - they were for fitting fairings. No idea where I put them - might be in my loft with my 400 left overs.
Might have been the battery box not the number plate ones. Still nagging me they were wrong - might have been a different listing.
I've been to bed a few times since 2020 when I bought them so my memory is not to be relied on.

The pictures in the advert quote a 6mm internal metal insert dimension Ted so assume with a 1mm wall to the insert, that the internal rubber dimension is 8mm ish

They aren't as wide as the originals though. 10.8mm as opposed to 13mm, that's only around 1mm smaller each edge.

I'd say you are correct Phil, the 6mm hole is the bolt hole on the metal dowel, that usually means the internal hole in the rubber is 8mm.I'll have a go using those suggested by Bryan and then you've still got spare ones Ken - thanks
