Can you get a vinyl in a similar colour ?

EDIT: When I needed to replace the lining in my VS I couldn't find cloth in the right colour so got some vinyl from Spotlight which was a near on perfect match for the visors and plastics.

Suppose I could, I would be sad to lose the flocking though. And I would have to use another pair of vinyl sunvisors as mine are flocked to match the roof.
Worth a visit to spotlight anyways

Roof skin has separated from the bracing. What glue was used / can I use to reattach?

Use a 2 part epoxy tube like panel bond or the sika version. I prefer the sika version but I can't remember the numbers on the tube.

Dash out today. The wiring is bad everywhere. I was going to put the other dash in today but I’m going to hold off now until I can sort out this mess of chopped and added spaghetti

snapped a hex bolt in the boss kit removing the wheel. Cant get the nut off to remove the boss kit.
Everywhere I turn there is more annoyance!

Can't you just use the automotive Sika and a caulking gun?

Can do but I find it's not really hardening and sooner or later starts to say. The other stuff is panel bond it's sandable , workable and sets rock hard. It's what they attach roof skins and some other stuff down with rather then spot welding it all these days.

Also comes in a caulking gun and self mixes out the nozzles from memory. They do 1 part and 2 part.

Bunnings sell 3 or 4 Sika panel adhesives. One is for glueing truck panels together, one automotive and one marine. The other is a seam sealer.
I have a couple in the shed I can get a pic of in the morning.
They are found in the paint aisle up high on the shelf gathering dust.
