I need to replace my side elevating roof hold down clamps.
Protex fasteners stainless clamps look good and wondered if anyone has replaced their own and how they've worked out.
Bridging the gutter may be a problem.
Atb,

The standard Devon catches have a profiled bit of plastic packing between the the catch and the side of the van to space it off .

Sorry freckvan, saw your post on rare visit and haven't been back on for a while. The ones I used were part no. 71-653m1ss and they work a treat.

Dito. I tried to get one out to take a pic but I couldn’t in the 5 mins I had spare. They are normal size but best phone Anglian batters on the London road in Leigh on sea and have a chat to them. I’ve had mine for a few years now and there will probably be better ones now. Sorry
