But you ordered them off Mini King 4 WEEKS ago, i'm sure i was there when you did, didn't you?

You haven't got them yet?

My guess would be he doesn't like you..... ha ha ha!

Business must be good for picking and choosing customers

I've found stuff from england only takes 6 days to get here and is under half the price, even including postage and takes about 3 weeks for domestic suppliers(if they have it in stock that is!) SOME not all suppliers!

My best guess is that the ones you had are NLA, only crap one now.

Karcraft have them.

Nah because then Id have to remove the hinges from the body and pull the other door off so they all matched... fingers crossed these ones Ive bought are pretty much the same as whats already on there.

I am not sure if John has them but you can still buy them. That said, the paper gasket type (as original) are better I think.

Cheers


as doc says, the paper ones, trap and absorb the water, and cause rust, that's why you see the doors rusting out round the hinges a lot. I always use the rubber ones now. Much betta idea.

Yayyyy..... Well its only taken like 5 weeks but Ive finally got a set of rubber door hinge gaskets... Got some spare if anyone is ever chasing any...! They are not too different to the ones I bought from Mini Kingdom back around 2001, just a shame I cant get that type anymore... Door back on this weekend, hopefully Ill have a bit more adjustment in the alignment now.

Actually on closer inspection they have the exact same P/N and detail stamped on them so I guess they are exactly the same?
