Advice required.-.I have an Elddis Typhoon and I have damaged the battery box door. A section has broken off the top LH corner and I've tried to get a replacement to no avail. The battery compartment appears to be built into the structure and the door itself cannot be removed. Can anyone recommend a suitable adhesive that will bond the edges of the door securely.

Could you use a fibre glass repair kit on the inside of the door.

Hi,
Mikes suggestion is certainly viable.
Just another suggestion, the company link below might be of help.
Good luck.

Hi Mike & Greg

Thanks for the suggestions. I hadn't thought about a glass fibre repair!

Just in case the fibre glass does not work - the best adhesive is Araldite.
