Wagon load cover repair kits

Post by scot850 »

During our house move my load cover was dropped and broke the ends off. Has anyone used either of the repair kits for sale out there?

There is one from Skandix and another on Ebay.

Has anyone used either kit and can they recommend either?

They have good reviews but as they are pricey at around $30 for a pair from Ebay + shipping or Euro 50 from Skandix.

The repair kits look different so not sure how they work.

I am not sure, but my cover broke, doesn't rewind, but I never knew a repair kit existed. I think I'm going to order the eBay one since it's closer, give it a try.

I am waiting for a response from the supplier as they only have 1 kit available and I want 2.

No clue on the Skandix part. If they had 2, I could order it and try befire you spend a fortune on shipping.
I never knew that repair kit even existed.
