Hi,
I'm selling my H14 and am thinking of recovering the sidebars. The current ones are kinda tacky looking and are missing a couple of feet in one area. Any suggestions?


Cheers

Hydro turf works well. Make sure you cut strips wide enough to lap all the way around the bottom of the rail to use that flat surface, as well as the top, for adhesion.

H14's dont have (need) non-skid on the rails in front of the chain plate for the side stay, that's pitchpole territory. At least that's the way the factory kits were sold. Looks funny compared to a H16, as you say, like somethings missing.

Hey maybe I should just cut out the front area so it is even. Is hydro turf the green stuff used in outdoor floor cover?
