Hello forum,
We have a leak in a 28 year old shower, and decided it should be replaced. However, after getting the cover off, it seems the entry pipe is more or less fixed in place!!
Any advice on a replacement? I was looking at Mira Sports, but the entry is on the left - the multifits are ok I suppose, but not pushbutton.

However, any advice gratefully received, and maybe some on what to do with that 10mm plastic pipe and brass end!!

Looks like 15mm pipe and it’s just a compression fitting that will undo and can even be carefully spun to reposition if needed.
 
Always best to identify the old shower model then just Google replacement for ...... That should produce results with pipe and cable entry in more or less the same positions making the changeover a fairly straightforward job which you should be able to do in an hour or thereabouts
