the crow and i Posted August 13, 2014 Report Share Posted August 13, 2014 G’day AllThe gas struts on our Dometic SEITZ Heki 2 large roof hatch have failed and Dometic have quoted $204 for replacements including the two white plastic caps that cover the bottom retaining pins, two top metal grip caps that cover the top retaining pins and four retaining pins.I contacted the local strut re-gas specialist and he cannot help as the struts only have a 4mm shaft and he cannot source parts.He did say new struts should retail @ $34.00 ea but it was not viable for him due the low number of enquiries and he had to buy 1000 at a time. I don’t mind paying a fair price but hate being ripped off, so I am looking for advice from anyone else that has been in the same situation.CheersBryan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blueheeler Posted August 13, 2014 Report Share Posted August 13, 2014 Bryan,Talk to Kedron they may have some 2nd hand struts or direct you to what you can do to repair them. Also I didn't think Dometic supplied direct to the public. I have had past dealings with them where they tried to touch me up on price and wouldn't supply direct to me also.Regards,Kingy.P.S. Try CARAVAN PLUS on the internet.They have helped me with many savings on purchases. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
