Darn! Couple years ago I had the same thing happen to me. Ended up throwing the darn thing away because it didn't match the new ones.

Geezer!!

That's why the sideguards on the chair I have now are attached directly to the frams and can't come off unless you unscrew 3 screws on each one lol. Hope you can get one withouth having to buy a whole new set. I never did understand why a couple of pieces of plastic are so expensive! :)

Say here's a thought.......do you have a fairly good camera on your cell phone? If you do often you can use the txt feature of your phone to send the pix message to an e-mail address where you can then maybe upload the picture to help narrow it down.

If you open a pic in 'Paint' (one of the Microsoft programmes which is usually part of the programmes which are part of the operating system (XP/Vista etc), you can click on "Image", then "Resize/Skew" and, in the top two boxes (before the %), put a number smaller than 100. Keep reducing the numbers (making sure you put the same in both boxes), you can re-size an image and shrink it - then, click "Save As" and re-name the image - when you've reached the size where you are happy, you can upload it! (If you put numbers larger than 100%, it will enlarge the image).

Hope this helps!

Best wishes,

Cat

PS,

Though I don't think much of Bromakin ( :mfrlol: ) , at least they are cheaper for a Quickie side guard than EPC: http://www.epc-wheelchairs.co.uk/products/...-sideguards.htm
Hope you manage to get one!

I had some and sent them to a guy through this site who wanted em but they ended up being the wrong ones. He lived in the UK and i sent them maybe 2 years ago... maybe he still has them. Send a message to Silone74, I just gave em to him so maybe he'd be willing to do the same.
