Perfect! Let me know when you find it. Just to confirm, this is the arm that sits on the beam? Often gets confused with the pitman arm attached to the steering box. My number is 07624 496122 / [email protected]

I'm after a RHD steering Idler arm. Thanks.

How difficult is it to replace a side window flyscreen in a westfalia poptop canvas? It looks to be sewn into the canvas, but is there an alternative to removing the canvas & sewing in a new one? I'm thinking bonded? Thanks in advance.

What does £250 get me?

Have you got the frame located using the metal tags? There is a gap in the window surround that the 1/4 light slots in through, then needs pressure against the 1/4 from the inside before hitting home against the c pillar. If it's not located right, the rubber will stick out proud.

Thanks for the reply, I've tried baby wipes etc with no joy. Just seen something on Google about white vinegar, so I'm going to give that a shot. Cheers.

The seal from my interior light has become badly stained over the years. Is there a way of cleaning it to remove the impregnated stains? Makes it more difficult when I don't know what it's made of, I'm presuming flexible pvc? I've tried all sorts of household cleaners, but no joy. Even better...

Hi, I'm looking for a pair of VDO oil pressure / temp gauges. Anything available?

Is that £50 posted to the U.K.?

I'm still looking too!

I did mine a few weeks ago. I'm repeating many of the comments posted earlier that it's not actually too bad. The chrome inserts pop out continually when you're putting them into the rubber & are a frustration more than anything, but you soon know what to expect. I found it easy enough to thumb...

That link from heritage is a steel pipe & is the one I've got. Pretty substantial piece of metal. Sleeving & bonding looks like the way forward.

You mean something like a piece of drain pipe? It gets pretty hot at the business end. Worth looking into though.

I need to replace the steel underbody heater tube. How have people fitted this? Straight forward tack welding or have you sleeved the 2 ends & slid the pipe over for a tight fit? Thanks.
