Any idea where I can buy a new cover? the one I have is now
in half a dozen pieces. Looks like It'll take me ages to remove
the build up of Sikoflex.

Don't bother. Gave up removing the airbox everytime I wanted to check the level.
Now run without it on.

Not new but can't be promoted enough: I have an indy close to me who does dry ice blast cleaning. He cleans my parts for a fiver (the ubiquitious Sikaflex mess is not a problem anymore). Works a treat on wheels and chassis also.

Never bothered me whilst I was driving - There's the F2 cover that goes on top already - and she sleeps in a garage so No Probs wink

Can't believe there's not an aftermarket part! looked everywhere
and still no joy. Like the idea of wing type nuts and a good
sealing arrangement as shown in the link.
