DeanMegaS2000 Posted January 5 Posted January 5 Trying my luck before placing an order. Looking for good condition storm cap, with the long front which goes over the V8 bonnet vents.
Mat Jackson 1975 Posted January 6 Posted January 6 Are they now back in stock at SBFS? - I`v been trying to get one for a while

The site mentions to still place orders when out of stock. So I was assuming they're a made to order item. I was going to call or email if I had no luck here first. I better get an order in if there's a que already.

(We have far more variations than Caterham do, so too many different options to keep on the shelf). 1
DeanMegaS2000 Posted January 14 Author Posted January 14 Does anyone know if Soft bits for Sevens is still trading? Their phone number doesn't appear to be working and I've had no response from their online form.
KevanP Posted January 14 Posted January 14 As far as I'm aware they are trading. Assume this is the contact details you used? https://www.softbitsshop.co.uk/contact-us-3-w.asp if no joy on phone try email maybe? 1
DeanMegaS2000 Posted January 14 Author Posted January 14 It's strange that the number just says cannot connect at this time, try again later. I've submitted an online enquiry form. I'll try sending an email as well. I didn't want to just submit an order without making contact first.
Dave Eastwood (Gadgetman) - Club Chairman Posted January 14 Posted January 14 I presume you’re using the mobile number 07856 603 969 for the workshop? Ive not heard anything about the status changing, but when I’ve rung in the past, the phone was the slowest way to get in touch. 1
DeanMegaS2000 Posted January 15 Author Posted January 15 Got through to Tristan at soft bits. Just kept trying the number. I guess there is an area of their workshop where he mustn't get signal. Very helpful. There is a small adjustment to make due to my mirrors being windscreen mounted. Which was my concern. So a tiny additional charge for the extra, but I have an order placed now and looking forward to getting it. 3
Mat Jackson 1975 Posted January 16 Posted January 16 So, are they still making these to order as they are showing out of stock online

He said he's a few to make now, so should be done in the next few weeks. If you have cage mounted mirrors, you'd be able to just place an order through the website.
DeanMegaS2000 Posted Monday at 14:14 Author Posted Monday at 14:14 My order has been pending for weeks now. Trying to get an update it seems is nigh on impossible.
