So the header tank split.... new one now fitted and now the clutch master has bust.

But we have water circulation, oil pressure and fuel pressure.

And in the sunshine (black roof = hot roof) the bloody headlining peeled off again!

Glue suggestions below!

Assuming it is not the foam backing broken down, then there is on the market a High Temperature spray adhesive, but I don`t know the make. However try Googling High Temp Adhesive and see what comes up, otherwise let me know and I will try and get the make off my very friendly auto upholsterer next week. (closed for the weekend :cry: )

PS. Just Googled it myself....try this one...Wurth is a good make:-

3M Scotch Weld 74 foam adhesive - it's what I use on DeLorean headlinings.and used it on my A610 (make sure the roof is completely free of old crap though!)

Edit: The way this stuff sprays is unique - it's like spraying a million super-sticky cobwebs.

Rupert needs to be a vivid orange the pic/simulation may not be quite giving the real result, if that makes any sense....

.......Dare to be different :wink: maybe you need somthing else to pick up the orange theme only something subtle ...like the roof :lol: :lol:

He asked for an opinion and that's mine. Of course he can do what he wants, if he does paint them orange he's wrong though of course :lol:

Anyway I'm into Womens golf at the moment in a big way :wink:
