Bits and Bobs

 As mentioned in the previous blog the two rubbery corner pieces to the left and right of the two outer front windows,came adrift.

After soaking them in bleach for a week to clean them up ( came up very well ) decided to reaffix them today.

I used some of this from Poundland (£2):-

It seemed to work very well.

The bottom lip should fit in the panel gap between the body of the van and the panel where the light is but I couldn't get it to fit so just stuck it on and sealed around the edges.

It all looked OK when I had finished.

The Unicorn across from us in storage had also lost one I noticed,perhaps worth keeping an eye on.

New ones are about £8 a pair plus P&P from Prima Leisure.

Plugged in the new ATC light and all worked.

Just waiting for a new little plate as I buggered the original up trying to clean it up,all the lettering came off.

Whilst in that area there was a cable hanging down whose support had presumably come away.

Bought some of these from E Bay to reattach it:-

Seems to do the job,

The piece of body work under the front window ( the bit with the badge on ) always seems grubby for some reason and is difficult to clean.

Thought I would try some Silky ( £10 or so off Amazon ):-

It is non abrasive and did a good job.removed a lot of grime:-

You can also use it on a boat if you've got one.

Hope these little adventures might help someone,
