side pannels for sterring box

Post by GERRY »

I have just got a couple of sterring box side pannels for the dexta and would like to know
if these are easy to fit, or do the drop arms have to come off ect, has any one done these before
silly question i suppose. thanks in advance, Gerry

They just "fiddle up from below, behind the drop arms. Should be dead easy.

did you get 2nd hand ones or after market ones? Just about every Dexta I've seen seems to be missing these, was it because they fell off or were removed at services and left off?
you know it's a classic when people stop to watch.
