I'd be interested in some feedback if you get a couple. Mine are OK but handy to know where to get spares.

Will do mate. I will going up there today to have a look. I saw the ones on fleaybay that Colin put up, I may just go and purchase local this time, easier if I have any problems with them. I wont bother with waterproof ones as my car doesnt leak . The ones that were there for 57 years were not waterproof. I probably wont be buying today though, as I am nowhere near that stage yet, but if I do I'll put something up. The windscreen has to come off again for a good clean and touch up, as now I have decided I am going to go full noise on the paint inside and out, otherwise with the work I have already done on the bulkhead and rear cab panel which I finally finished last night, it'll be like putting a top hat on a cockroach if I dont.

Hi all
Bought one to try out. I will try and upload a video tomorrow but it won’t allow me to send it on the phone..

Look the goods.........do they self park in that position towards the centre windscreen mullion.

Got a rubber bottom seal for my truck cab from Bunnings in their rubber extrusion section,about $14 for 5meters from memory

They self park, thats not quite the position, it only does a 90-110 deg sweep so they are like the motors of old. I already have all the gaskets, went hard a month ago and ordered the lot.

Nice looking boat across the road from you......I've got one of those boat projects, need to get land rovers done and get back to it

Cheers Paul

Ooo... good timing, thanks Paul!
