Should this be secured

August 26, 2020, 05:47:16 pm

Had the headlight replacement done at the end of last year by Xtreme. This has been bothersome g me so here goes.
The bottom of the two front panels are each against a metal bracket where the panel ends against not the generator opening.
The bracket stops the panel from going back but does not secure the panel, it can be pulled forward and over time may wear from the rubbing.
Should the panel have been secured with epoxy it some other adhesive?
Thanks for your help

Any of you have loose, as in unsecured front panels after getting the XTreme light upgrade?

A picture is worth a thousand words. Mine is secure.
Looks like you are missing the two bolts that come up from the bottom

Thank you, I have just sent an email to Xtreme to see what they want to do. I thought it was an unusual design where it was free floating.
Thanks

It would be a quick fix to drill two holes up from the bottom and secure with screws and nuts or even self tapping bolts.

That is true, but I wrote them an $18,000 check and they could have returned the coach "finished" which they did not, my awnings were covered in white sludge that was very difficult to remove
Damaged the refrigerator access panel etc.
so don't really want to start finishing their job.

For 18K they would be fixing it and cleaning things up. A few years ago MOT left a small bulkhead repair 4K not completed to my satisfaction. Of course my bad for being in a hurry and not checking things out raining on a Friday at 4:00. Lessons learned

Yes: it was a Friday late night and late in the day with rain showers, learnt that lesson!
