Anyone killed a Prius Gen 3 inverter?

My G9200-52010 Prius C Gen 3 inverter arrived without the two aluminium cover plates from the top. As it hadn’t been split open I’m assuming it’s in working condition but if anyone has a dead inverter that they could part out these parts from I’d be pleased to purchase them. Should be easy to slip into a padded envelope for shipping to Aus. Otherwise I suspect I will be doing a bit of fabrication, probably with 6mm acrylic.
Thanks in advance,
Chris

The cover for the motor and ac connections? I should have one of them somewhere, but I'm in UK, no idea what postage to AUS will be but if it's any good to you I can find out.

Sorry Jack, maybe I should have been searching for one that died of natural causes!

Anyway thanks for the offer Bigpie, it’s the two plates obviously missing in this pic:

I have a UK bank account so funds transfer is easy, I’ll PM my address if you can send your sort code and price.

Yup,’m.art.y’ just pointed out that mine is from a Prius C and has other differences to the straight Prius inverter so please hold off on posting while I consider my options. The learning curve continues to steepen! If it gets much steeper I may fall over backwards.

Confusion clearing, Yaris wasn’t sold in Aus under that name. It was called Aqua in Japan but, I believe, just Prius C here. So, I not only need the two ‘Yaris’ cover plates but also to research possible capacitor replacements in the dc/dc converter and possibly some resister changes.
