TRJAMES Posted August 31, 2013 Share Posted August 31, 2013 Mine has been retrimmed quite poorly. The vinyl has stretched and isn't bonded to the cross-members hence it bulges into a dome at anything above 5 mph and sags when stationary.Finding a good second hand one is impossible. I have found a reputable company in London that retrims Webasto roofs in something called Everflex which sounds promising.Anyone had a positive experience getting their Edrose retrimmed?

Beans Posted September 1, 2013 Share Posted September 1, 2013 Had mine re-trimmed more than 15 years ago, but it hasn't been water tihjt till I taped over all the front and side edges :-/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TRJAMES Posted September 24, 2013 Author Share Posted September 24, 2013 TheoThe Edrose is completed and the result is good. I have addded a strip of 3mm gasket rubber under (and slightly rearward) of the leading edge to form a better seal. We shall see.I am now in the process of restoring the heater unit. On your blog you talk of a closed cell foam that you used to replace the seals at the front/rear and on the flaps. What thickness of foam did you use? who supplied it?Any advice welcome.

Beans Posted September 26, 2013 Share Posted September 26, 2013 Hot the foam from a local rubber store, who do al sorts of (industrial) rubber profiles and plates.The rubber I used was only a few mm thick, not sure exactly how much. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beans Posted September 27, 2013 Share Posted September 27, 2013 Just measured some of the left-overs, it is actually 5mm thick Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
