Legshield beading lower end caps

Postby Warkton Tornado No.1 » Tue Sep 15, 2015 1:10 pm

My apologies in advance if this has been discussed to death but my searches on this Forum have revealed nothing.

My only current road legal SX was put together some time ago & now those things that I ignored are starting to annoy me.

Badly fitting legshield/floorboard plastics that deform as the result of the clips being driven home (not the M5 fasteners, the push on clips!) were bought from the highly reputable Italian remanufacturers. Is there anything better now, three or four years on?

However, what bugs me most are the legshield beading lower end caps. I have the benefit of being able to select from quite a few spares that I have amassed over the years but have no pairs of the handed type. All of my handed types are left hand. I have the non handed type but they are an awful fit by comparison.

The only paired type I’ve seen on the net are from Scootopia. Can anybody recommend them or anyone else’s, for that matter, please?

The Scootopia ones are by far the best I've fitted.

Thank you for that information, Adam.

I don't think anybody is likely to contradict you & from the photos I've seen, they look as if they just need a polish on the bench mop. Very satisfying!

Kind Regards

Thank you, that's very kind.

Is there anything specific that you might need yourself?
