Hi Can anyone help me please I'm after some trigano figure 8 elastics. The only please that seem to be able to find them is on Camperlands website but the postage is £6.50 and the elastics are only 36p each. I dont think so

they are very thin elastic band type rubbers that hold the window flaps down.you can use ordinary elastic bands with a spot of superglue to form the "8" but they fall apart 6 months later ,the originals (i presume) have lasted over a decade
whist on the subject any idea where to get the small bands that hold the rolled up doors or windows against the tent ,they are very small
it must be falling apart time we've now changed all the pegging rubbers on the trailer part as the rubber bands were "melting" and I've now ordered another 20 anchor rubbers for the awning!16 years though isnt bad i wonder if the new ones will last that long
