WTB fuse box lid for 06 Girly

I'm spending the day going through my new to me 06 Girly.  I pop off the seat and notice that the lid for the fuse box is missing.  Surely there must be a lid that snaps on the fuse box to keep them dry.  Can someone provide a source, new or used?

Thanks all.

Thanks for the link.  There is one as the fuse box has two plastic catches where the lid/fuse cover snaps into place.  I'll keep up my search and thanks again!

You can get one from Bikebandit... if you buy the whole harness for $500+. It's shown as part as the harness.

Cheap eBay harness's go for $50+

Wrong bike, right cover, right price: http://www.ebay.com/itm/1997-2006-Triumph-Daytona-955i-Wiring-Harness-Fuses-Relays-Etc-6011-/311527167795

I was afraid I'd have to buy the whole harness.... so I did.

Thank you for the tip JD!!!!!

Now, I need a new radiator overflow container as the one of the bike cracked whilst I was removing the gas tank in 24 degree f weather today.....

Just like me in the cold,  that plastic is brittle!

New one off Bikebandit will run you $65 and eBay has an expensive one for $45... If it were me I would wait and buy a cheaper one off eBay later.

Funny, there are a dozen of the overflow bottle for 1050's there. Wrong bottle of course.  :^_^

I made them an offer on the overflow tank, JD.  Thanks again for the help.... you're a great ambassador for the site and the bike.

Thanks for the tip KK.  I'll get the brass fittings and keep myself busy on the next snow day.
