front wheel cover & vis mast grommets
« on: 18, March, 2010 - 21:47:07 »
Hi Folks,
Does anyone have a front wheel cover for sale?  I don't need the stickers to be good as I have a pair.

Where the hi vis mast pushes into the top of the body there are two square-ish rubber grommets.
Does anyone have a second-hand pair of grommets?

Cheers, Giles

Thanks, I bought the grommets, but they don't seem to stay in place.  They rise up and become loose.  Any suggestions how to fix them down?  I might try a bit of double sided tape.

I still need the front wheel cover, has anyone got one?  I have the stickers so I just need the cover even if the sticker has been damaged or removed.

Cheers, Giles

Hi Giles a very common problem with the grommets caused by movement in the body shell against the fixed frame loop- I think someone suggested using clear mastic a good solution.
