Cistern Lever Replacement - help

[Ady]

Got a slight problem in the fact my current cistern level has snapped in
half.
So I went on a mission to find a new one that would fit the Shires
high level cistern.
After going direct to shires and getting knocked back "We cannot deal
direct to the public", and going via a recommended retailer "If its a
gold one then it will be £100, but if its chrome £15", but the style has
changed in the past 5 years and it might not fit!

The suite is the adelphi one and if anyone has got any ideas as to where
I might be able to source one it would be much appreciated as SWMBO is
getting a little brassed off going up the ladders to flush

Can't you make one from a piece of copper pipe. It is only a seesaw held in
place with a pin through the bracket on the cistern.

Go to your local authority "recycling" place. Mine usually has loads dumped
there esp after the weekend.
Aren't these things bog standard fitting anyway? They sell generic ones in
the sheds.
