Hi

What has the world come too when you can't park up for a week while seeing your new grand child at the rowing club in Hereford without someone borrowing things off your van

My mum and dad came to see their new grandchild this week and have been at the rowing club all week and woke up this morning to find these bits missing off their motorhome (both sides)

Does anyone know where to get new ones from as I'm sure they aren't going to be returned.

You win some and lose some šŸ¤£

That makes no sense at all but in todays climate, nothing surprises me anymore.

In answer to your question, possibly a main dealer OR if you give them the dimensions etc. there is a Fun member who does 3D printing.
They might be able to help? Good Luck!

If you're on about the little "shrouds" that cover the trim, they've probably just fallen off.
I had the same on my van and you can see where the area is "green" where water has got between the shrouds and the van body. I think this happens because the manufacturer doesn't clean off the release agent that is applied during the injection moulding and the glue/sealant eventually let's go.
I purchased some replacements from Burstner, but can't remember where I've put them !

Strange they where there on Thursday morning when parents had to change the gas bottle and by Friday they where gone on both sides without the van moving anywhere šŸ¤”

I did think the same that they might of fallen off due to the green stuff but they are dry and still sticky/ tacky
