That's totally understandable.

I'm probably a bit attached to my cars. They all have first names, and I tend to personify them. It would be like drilling into a member of my family!

Ideally, if I just had another hatch from a junked car, I could have just modded it and built the Kammback directly onto it. But I don't, and am sure a junkyard one wouldn't be cheap. Also, I'd then have to store my "good" hatch indefinitely as well.
I would send you one if the postage weren't so expensive. With 4 Metros, there is already a junkyard forming.
