Now I`m not going to bore you with the usual details as most will know that eventually we all seem to dissapear under a piece of plastic sheet that rover couldnt master and were incapable of getting it to stick. My question is this, What would it be like to live with if I just pulled out the offending item lock stock and built a small bonfire with it? I have spoken to the very polite Gentleman at LaSalle who will send me a lovely new and fit for purpose replacement but, you guessed it, he needs the best part of two hundred squid to send me it.
Shall I just rip the lot out and jump on it?
Thank you my friends.

Without anything it is cold and in the winter the condensation forms interior rain.
I ripped the plastic out of my series and carpeted the roof. You need a good strong contact adhesive like Evostick.

Well ......
Pulled the old lining out and must say I prefer it without it. Mine is a truck cab and I reckon it looks and feels better for a utility type vehicle.
Now I know its fine at the moment (Summer) but I dont want condensation issues come winter. I have not noticed any increase in noise levels (That might be because I am already a bit mutton). So, started to look round for a supplier of foam rubber materials. The closed sell type as opposed to the seat foam type. Yes very technical I am. Loads of suppliers for sound deadening material etc but what a cost! Any way I got a telephone number for Kirkfield Rubber and Plastic products in Bromford so I gave them a call and the nice lady is sending me a sample.
Will let you know how I get on. Apparently they can coat it in a glue of your choice from tacky to realy never come off sticky. Sounds interesting.
