Louvre draught proofing

Slipping on seals can be quite dangerous Steve, just be careful where you're walking.

 

Is 4pm too early for a drinky?

 

No although it does depend on said drink ??

 

You're going to get fat sitting around eating cake now you've stopped working on campers all day.

 

You may be missing some transparent bits, assuming they're like Devons, which had lengths of lipped seals on each pane that squished down when the louvre's shut. I got mine from Status VW, so maybe VWH have some.

 

3 pages to a sane answer. It is a devon and that's exactly what I'm missing. Status is now JK isn't it?

 

There was a guy on ebay selling them a year or two ago
Someone on here had put a link up to the seller
Ive searched ebay and tried on here but cant find the post


Sorry steve thats no help to you whatsoever

 

Nah, it's all helpful - I know I haven't imagined it for starters.

 

No you havent imagined it
I remember reading the post and thinking great i need some of those ill bookmark it for further down the line as i didnt have spare money at the time
Ive since changed computers and lost the bookmark

I imagine thats going to happen a lot with a lot of little things when i come to build the bus back up

 

It'll be 50p a metre when I find it. Shower stuff is close but meant for the bottom edge so the flap goes the wrong way.

 

Go to a local electrical wholesalers and ask for Grommet strip, all sizes are available and they will almost certainly have one that will slide over the glass

 

By jove I think you might have cracked it for local pick-up. Can't find the original stuff anywhere.

I think this is what your looking for @paradox, unfortunately the eBay ad has expired

 

Yup that was it

 

Something like this -

Should be able to get some from Newey and eyre, city electrical factors, yesss, Edmunsons pretty much anywhere matey

 

Let's hope they don't insist i buy 35m of it like the place on the link.

 

@zedders - there`s a CEF just down the road from Eds place - i got some shrink tubing last techenders .
5 minutes - just outside Lutterworth - give it a Google

 

I'm sure there must be places on the web selling sealing strip with different profiles who'll sell you a metre or two...

 

Yeah, but then I have to wait for it to be delivered to Ed and get from him - "is it here yet?".
I'd rather bomb up the road and fetch if it's doable, leaving me freer to booger off somewhere else if I decide to. I'm getting itchy to be moving on somewhere else. I have a mate on top of a hill in Wales who needs whooping at backgammon and a crazy Northerner in Wakefield (new dad at 50 lol) to see too.

 

If you have to buy more than you need I'll buy some from you Steve
