Broken cookerhood catch

Hi'-

The catches which hold in place the filter on my cookerhood filter cover have broken

I need to replace them.

This is what they are,

However I don't really want to spend £60 on two little catches.

I've looked but I can't find these anywhere else. Do any if you know where I can get these ?

Ah ok, what's a data plate?

It's a hja2600 extractor hood of that helps

data plate is the badge (normally visible once you remove filters) with model, serial and product number. Just put your model number into bekos parts site but it doesn't come up.

The lamona name is howdens own name but I thought all of it was made by beko for them, seeing as it doesn't show I'm guessing it's another manufacturer on howdens behalf, so can't get it at my

cost price.

I appreciate your help thank you :-)

I'll just give howdens a call and see if they've got spares that don't cost so much or I. Ought just use magnets instead to hold it

yeah or screw/glue couple of toggle latches from screwfix to secure.

Actually it looks to be a belling hood.

I'll probably just bodge it though don't fancy spending 40-60£ on some catches
