Finding Grey Plastic Trim?

Post by mwheatley »

Hi All,

Does anyone know where I can get the strips of trim that go around the table/cupboards etc in my 1990 Westy? I have seen some on the internet but it seems to be thinner than the substanstial looking original that's in the van.

Thanks in advance for your help.

Matt

By thinner do you mean in width or depth? I ask as I was about to fork out for a load too.

Gunzl do it but not sure what it is like in comparison.

It's the depth. The original is more "bulbous" (for want of a better word!), much more sturdy than the stuuf I've seen. I'll take a look at the Gunzl site, thanks.

Just looked on the Gunzl site & this seems much better, and much more a likeness to what I was looking at before. I'm ordering some now so will let you know what it's like.

Thanks again.

A mate just bought some from Gunzl.

Same as original stuff, so no worries!

I have a load of it at home - I retrimmed my units last year in grey and ordered too much. Its the flat T-trim not the bulbous stuff but if it's any use I will see how much I have of it left. :ok

I could use some of the flat stuff as well as the bulbous type.
