Cabrio Bits

[Jools]

Hi all, had a good day at the Classic Car Show (NEC) today. Apart from drooling over some of the cars there my main purpose was to source new bits for my project Cabrio. I expect to be sending the panels to the paint shop shortly (just the rear tub to take off). So I thought that some new brightwork & lights could do with replacing. I have managed to get a pair of "wing mirrors" some stainless fastners, for re-assembly & spoke to a company that can supply me with new wing piping at reasonable cost in any colour except yellow, (why not yellow I don't know), however I think I want light blue.
I had no luck in finding bonnet catches so if anyone knows of a supplier please tell. The sidelights were proving a problem but I think I have found a Rubbolite supplier with a couple in stock, I will know on Monday, again if anyone knows of a source or a comparable fitting please let me know.
Ta, Jools.

Re: Cabrio Bits

Thanks for that. How have you fitted them in. The rubbolite ones were in with 3 small screws.

These are really nice Bob. Much nicer than the standard Rubbolite items supplied by Marlin.

Re: Cabrio Bits

Hi hope this helps, the mounts I made for both Bob and my car are made from 1.2mm Stainless steel turned and polished, then fixed to the wing with 3mm screws. The lights Bob mentions above just clips in.
