I found it... Unfortunately the pics are dead now, but the descriptions seem clear enough for you to still get the job done...

Perhaps if you do effect a repair in the same way, you might be good enough to take some pics - I'm happy to upload them somewhere to our server so there's less chance of them going missing again?

Regards,

I think it's like rain in Wales/Scotland... If it hasn't happened yet, it's about to. Hopefully the link above might prove useful again for the next generation of 8L owners
