Ianboom Posted March 8, 2017 Author Share Posted March 8, 2017 Hi, I saw those, but didn't want 5 and thought they were pricey, even compared to Westfield prices. May have a go at making some if none turn up. Thanks Ian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steve (sdh2903) Posted March 9, 2017 Share Posted March 9, 2017 Have you phoned westfield? The webshop showed out of stock but when I phoned they had them and I received the next day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chriss1455 Posted March 10, 2017 Share Posted March 10, 2017 I think i have a pair of these. I dont have the rubber grommet part if any good? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ian Kinder (Bagpuss) - Joint Peak District AO Posted March 11, 2017 Share Posted March 11, 2017 Don't forget to put a dab of superglue on the grommet to nose cone as they can fall out when fitting the bonnet. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ianboom Posted March 13, 2017 Author Share Posted March 13, 2017 Thanks, i think I'm sorted now. I ordered a rad fan bracket off them when i was after the bonnet pins as they showed in stock. I then had an email to say it was out of stock. It turned up 2 days later! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thrustyjust Posted March 13, 2017 Share Posted March 13, 2017 I stuck a little bit of vaseline in the rubber grommets to stop the pins pulling the rubbers out the nose. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
