Hi Guys,

Last year with my accident,  I broke the magnesium alloy top-box bracket right in two on my 1150 GS Adventure.
I either need to replace it with a used one, or get someone to weld it together (as well as add some reinforcing flanges for stability and strength).

Do anyone of you know (in Gauteng) where I can get :
a) someone to do the specialised magnesium welding/brazing without the whole thing going up in flames  :angry4: (as magnesium somehow tends to do) or having the metal losing it's integrity and strength;
      or
b) a second-hand, reasonably-priced replacement part.
