Subject:Ceiling Glue/Extra Seats for Westy
From:Kelly Bauman

Fellow Listees,

Thanks to all those wo offered advice on appropriate glues for reattaching
velcro to the ceiling of my Westy.  I looked for all of the products
mentioned but only found the Weatherstrip Adhesive.  So far it seems to
have worked great.  Will it stand the test of time?

Thanks again to Lloyd Perkins of Lennoxville, QC who sold me the extra 2
seater bench which has made my Westy a six seater (on demand).  I installed
it for the first time on Sunday.  It took about 38 seconds.  I unscrewed
the cover to the floor rails to find shining new rails already bolted in
place.  The seat just slides on and off.  Cut up some carpet scraps to
cover the floorand voila!  

This leads me to 2 questions:

1. Can anyone suggest the best grease for lubing the seat rails?  Taking
them in and out involves a great deal of sliding.

2.  Should anyone want the seat rails that came with my spare seat they can
be had for the cost of shipping and packaging.  They have most if not all
of the mounting bolts.

The list served me well.  Long live the list.  Thanks all.
