Hi Peeps
I found the acrylic lid cracked around one of the outermost hinge holes (there are 3 In all). Made a repair firstly with solvent cement, failed to hold the plastic together. So dismantled again and repaired with liberal dose of Uni-Bond Epoxy for plastic. Although it is holding together, will gel coat resin give more strength to the area surrounding the hinge area ?
New units are available, circa £100 but shelling out for new tyres currently so repair required for a few weeks.
Many thanks for your input...Al
