Does anybody have a clue where I can buy a few of these little clear plastic plugs?  They are about 7mm in diameter and the ones you remove to clear the inside of condensation between the window panes. I am sure I won't be the first or last to have lost one.

Have look for moss plastics on google, they provided me with some last year as samples. Use a drill bit to measure the internal diameter of the hole and ask for some that size and also a little larger.

For a licence dated 1997 or later you must add together the plated max weight of the caravan and trailer, if the total is 3500 or less you can tow it. You may even tow a caravan with a MAM greater than the cars unladen mass the restriction was removed in 2013

When I needed one for my last van, my dealer sold me a few. I think you may find some dealers probably keep a few.

Cheers Bill, and a good tip for sizing. I love the link to Moss Plastics, I could get wuite a few bits and bobs from them.

Ta Dave11, I will give my local dealers a ring as I have been told Poluplastic have these parts as a dealer only item, I don't know why.

Hi Pickled Onion
I think you are probably right, I could not just order them as a part. I was buying some other bits from my local dealer and explained that I needed one, they gave me four or so. I think I still have a couple that I never used ( I have changed my van since). Have a wood with your local dealer who services your van, they will probably give you a couple.
If you have lost one and can't locate one, let me know and I will have a look in my spares box, I may be able to find one that I didn't us and post it to you.

I removed mine and they all split, so I rang the Lunar dealer and they gave me the number of a manufacturer, so they sent me a small bag full. Ide try the dealers and they may pass you on to someone.

I tried my dealer but they told me that they didn't have any however they put me in touch with Miriad so I sent them an email and a kind lady there called Tina got in touch immediately. She is sending me some with an extra couple of spares free of charge, impressive service I thought, ....result!

PS, Cheers Dave11 for your very kind offer.

Dave
