Hello all,
I've only been posting for half an hour but I'm someone...anyone...can help me out.
I bought our motorhome only a few weeks ago...
Saying it has issues is an understatement, however I'm trying to address the problems before springtime and looking forward to some happy trotting.
The van had some sheet stuck to the back panel with silicone.....without being able to see underneath at the time of buying the van I didn't realise how bad the damage was.
Anyway...to cut a long story short..I pulled the plastic sheet off and the aluminium trim that held it on. I'm now finding it really difficult to source some replacement aluminium profile to match the existing.
Apparently Swift used it on many caravans and motorhomes prior to 2000.
I've been in touch with Swift at Hull and given them the vehicle details but they say all their records are removed from their system periodically....unfortunately my 1999 van falls into that period...therefore they can't tell me what the van was fitted/kitted out with.
My question is ...can anyone tell me exactly what I'm looking for (a name perhaps?)
The trim I'm trying to find fits all the way around the top and side of the van both side where the roof and side panels meet. It has two small rubbers either side of it and a (herzim) strip in the middle to cover the screw heads that hold it to the van.
It's about 25mm wide without the rubber edges fitted.
I'm hoping someone might recognize it and know where I'd get some....I'm sure it will be a second hand item now.
I don't need the curved parts ...just a straight length.
I've tried loads of caravan breakers and the usual buying and selling websites but no joy.
Here's hoping someone can help.
Thanks
Moo.
