latest 5 related part to croos our workshop:)

the pillars had previously been flocked, unfortunately whoever did them had used something resembling prit stick as an adhesive so a lot of the flock had fallen off and what remained was pretty rough

plastic warmed gently both sides to de stress the plastic and it moves back to its original position

As above, great finish. I looked for some good quality pods for mine but gave up and fitted a centre mount.

Can not wait to see them finished :)

Thats ok mate, i already have a double pod that we made by moulding a piece that fits over the top of this panel and attaching it using the two existing screw locations. Yours looks to have improved on this by making it a one piece unit but only if its flocked.
Top work :agree:

for a single pod fitted and both A pillars flocked you would be looking at £70 or for twin pods fitted and both A pillars flocked £85
return uk post is about £15 by parcelforce
