I'm not very impressed with the quality of the fixings supplied with the Windrestrictor. I wouldn't expect an accessory priced at the level it is to suffer from rusting.

Have you contacted them?


They respond quickly, but bear in mind trans Atlantic times.

Hello @OBx2, sorry you are having rusting with your bolts.

I would be glad to send you some new ones.

Please contact me with your order information as well as shipping address and I will get some in the mail to you.

Thank you,

I'm hardly going to replace them with the same quality bolts and have the same problem. I'll source some non-ferrous fixings to swap them with.

Check on getting some stainless steel replacements. In the US boat and marine stores have them.

A colleague of mine at work bought one recently for his Wife's SLK, on my recommendation, and he has the same issue with rusty bolts.

I bought mine in 2015 for my 250cdi and since transferred to the new SLK. No rust at all on mine oddly.

Im a little shocked you have to drill through your rear dash to attach it . :surprise:

 

[OBx2]

You don't. the holes are already there.

I wondered that :grin:

Most good tool shops / boat yards will stock stainless steel bolts with allen key heads in numerous sizes .
One down the road from me stocks loads .
