Hood repair

[ListonEunos]

Hi, just a couple of questions if that's okay? The first regarding my hood, it's a vinyl hood with a heated glass rear window. No problems with it except for two tiny holes on either side that are getting worse every time I take the hood down. I've tried to patch it with a bit of glue and a piece of fabric to repair a tent but as the fabric folds at this point it's nots worked. If I didn't fold it, I guess it would be fine. Any thoughts the hood is perfect apart from this.

Also I have flattened my battery a couple of times leaving side lights on, does it sound like it needs replaced, I'm anxious about using it now incase I get stranded, charges up fine?

Thanks

Kevin

I have the same hood problem.

You have a Mk2 hood so it is more expensive to replace but if the holes are where it is folding you are not in a good place sorry but you know that already.

If you want an opinion on your battery either advise how long you have left the side lights on or advise the make and age of the battery and it may be possible to give advice but if you read what you posted again you will find there was far too little information given for anyone to advise you.

That's true, wrote it in a bit of a hurry. Never had any other problems with battery but I had left the side lights on for most of the morning.

Just need advice on how to sort out the handling which I have asked before and how to remove the after market gear knob- won't twist off.

Will wait till I have more time to write posts in future,

Thanks
