Has anyone changed the rubber on the screen of a VXR8? Mines getting a bit tatty.
I'm pretty sure I can get it from Walkinshaw!

Such a quiet part of PH I'm afraid.
Have to say, that looks really quite bad for a car supposed to bake in the Australian sun! Is this common on the VXR8?

Pretty common I'd say. Mine is not as bad, but it's starting to look a bit tatty now

Got the new trims from Walkinshaw, thanks Dave.
Had the car mot's today and Neil at nwj fitted them thanks Neil.
I could have done it myself if I knew how easy a job it is but it might have needed a special tool.

How much were the parts? What’s the installation procedure? Mine are a bit tatty as well

£85 for the parts . Changing them is pretty easy. You get your finger under the bottom end and give it a pull and they come out. Replacing them s just a matter of pushing them in.
