Ripped mosquito netting in aft roof and lpg insurance

Post by Frankie » Fri Sep 09, 2016 8:10 pm

A few questions about the AFT canopies. Have people been able to replace this or does it involve replacing the full canopy? Do the zips pull and give out often?

Does log conversionmake it difficult to get insurance? A colleague said hus brother had trouble with the insurance on his factory fitted log car due. Is this still a problem?

I can't help you with the canopy, but I've had no problem getting insured with my LPG bongo.

Not quite sure of where your rip is, whether its in the netting or along the seem where the net meets the zip.
Anyhow the following link may prove useful.
Check out the instructional video for Tear Aid, I have used this successfully on tent fabric that abutted zips and held for few seasons, just have to be a bit careful though, it can be bought on a roll, quite expensive if I remember correctly but saved the awning for a good while.

Thankyou for the advice. It looks like it is just the mosquito net, sorry for my lack of clarity.
