Cheers for that! I will have a go with it, what colour is it?

Yeah Charlies Juke box! Antiquated old thing, (Juke box not Charlie) Have not worked on one like that for about 20 years and even then it was very old technology! It all started coming back to me though, thing is I remembered on those old Rowe Ami models there used to be some area on them that I always used to get a big electric shock from! So I was a little wary where my fingers went, I am terrified of anything with valves in as the voltages can be very high indeed. I only popped in for an oil filter and a few bits and spent nearly 2 hours inside that juke box! Quite enjoyed it actually. :)

Dunno if this helps but this is how the originals are shaped and cut and where they are drilled??

Cheers

They also look like the ones off the plastic panels, as there are holes for more than just the dzus fasteners

Took me ages to fix my tank protector using double sided tape.

Buy these:

Martin,

I did have, or had, a new set in the garage about 2 year ago.

Bought them for a track day fairing but never fitted them.

I'll have a look in the garage tomorrow and if they are still knocking about you can have them for the cost of the postage if your interested.

Interested? Yes please! I will have them if you find them. I insist I will give you more than just the postage! Buy you a nice bottle of wine or something? :)
