They come up on eBay but the price dropped back recently as several senior Schmitters were clearing stock, so there will be a lull. Fortunately a lid is not to critical in the Scootacar. The Schmitt does need one really, despite it fouling most batteries. I think it is another part that ranks in the 'put all the spare ones in the field and there are enough to go round'. Making new ones will merely prove the point so it will be a brave fellow who takes that project on. You could make a replica early lid as that is square tin box not a pressing.
