Re: rear wheel arch replacement and respray
Most people as far as I understand use sprinter replacement arches , bongo spares even sell them as do mazdabongo.com . Might be work giving the club shop a call to see what Ian can do for you . Keep us up the speed as this is a topic that is of interest to all bongo owners ! :wink: Brian Also have ...

Re: Restoring wheel arches with fibreglass
Good morning Mike and thanks for getting back to me .
That's fine , I thought as much .
I might try the van-x ones at some stage to see what they are like as one of the arches is bubbling a bit
Thanks again
Brian

Re: Restoring wheel arches with fibreglass
Just a thought - once the initial glassing on the arches is done you could simply bond on a pair of black glassfibre wheelarch trims to finish it off neatly without repainting . I bought a pair (moulded from original Bongo ones) for, I think, £40 incl post - cant remember who supplied them but he h...

Re: Original aerial required
Hello Roy If it's that it broke along the blade , like mine , I fixed it by sliding a 6mm express nail over the two parts and squeezing it onto them , it doesn't look half bad and it's better than spending £40 odd pound ! Ivan send on a photo if you pm me your email address . If it's a used one your...

Re: Front door speaker replace / upgrade
Thanks for getting back to me doone I've found the same , lots of speaker treads but few as to what fits the bongo straight in . It seems like the depth is the problem, one of the many great features of the bus , compact width ! I remember a good tread a while back about a really good speaker that f...

Yes this indeed are strange and scary times , I was planning on going to the bash again this year and meet up with our likeminded bongo enthusiastics but I'm sure next year will be even better !

Re: Removing the EGR pipes
Also taking off the fuel lines is not a big job , just make sure that go back in the same order , it's fairly obvious to be fair. A brake line spanner is ideal as it catches the blot head better but a standard wrench will also work . There us no pressure there so no issues on the front . To clean th...

Re: Removing the EGR pipes
Hello there I dont thinks Allan's do them anymore but they can be made up easily enough unsung two pieces of steel and the ends of the pipes as templates , blocked the exhaust EGR pipe using a 22mm plumbing fitting , works a treat . The reason Allan's stopped supplying them , I think , was because y...
