Have you by chance got a picture of them, to give me an idea if they'd fit please?
Sorry john, I don't have any pictures over and above the merc pictures I've posted in the past. The spares are all up in the loft just now and I'm not going up there just now to photograph them. LOL - I know you aren't asking me too so don't be offended by that remark.

Anita's ebay shop has pictures but they aren't great and the ebay shop has a terrible picture of the front mudgaurd.

Here are some pictures of the merc with the mudguards visible. You know the wheel size so that might help. The front one has funny offset wire struts. They don't come down equally on both sides, and the rear one is held up at the rear on the rack. The front part of the rear one mounts to the frame so you would need to rig up your own wires somehow to mount it.

Pgotos here:
