 Cooling Shrouds (rubberised) Has anyone had any success with fixing split/cracked shrouds?

Re: Cooling Shrouds (rubberised) I thought Dyane had tin shrouds and 2cv rubber. Just what I heard. Scary prices, hence wanting repair advice.

I HATE selling things  Not because I want to keep them, but people always faff with money. Whatever they're worth to you  How much are they outside 'normal' 2cv world?
