Westfalia roof light

Post by danmetallic »

Ive managed to snap both of the white plastic washer type rings that you see at the end of each of these arms (while going under a barrier with roof light open). Rather than get a whole new mechanism does anyone have any idea what I could use to replace these? The arms keep popping away for the Perspex without them.

Thanks chaps! The actual mechanism itself is ok. Just the nylon guides that have gone. Seems a shame to replace the whole unit.
