What did you do with your Grenadier today?

[Max]

My Wipertech’s for the X3 and Grenny turned up today. The blades on the grenny aren’t too bad really but not sensational so figured I’d change them as I had to get some for the X3 anyway.
Might theow them on this afternoon.
Have never used Wipertech so will see how they go.

I have the same and are working fine...just a little play in the fitting but to no affect and yes have kept the old ones

Tested out the new OEM canvas canopy on my QM. It's been raining for 2 days, the inside of the tub has been bone dry. Really impressed. Also, now have L track in tub.

Fitted a set of weather shields to the windows.

I’ve never used these before but they seem useful.

These are made for the earlier G Wagen but fit fairly well, not perfect but good enough I think.

Bought them online here.

Bit of an update on these.
The rear driver’s side went walkabout (fell off) on the highway about a week after I fitted them.
The vendor supplied me a replacement for the cost of shipping. I still haven’t fitted it.

Today, a month later, again on the highway at 100km/hr the driver side front started to give way, but I managed to get the window down and hold it in place until I could pull over and take it off.

End result, I can still recommend the shields themselves, but the double sided tape they come with just doesn’t seem to be able to hold them in place.

I cleaned and prepped the surface of the doors exactly how they recommended.

So now I’m going to take them off and look for a stronger more reliable tape. Any suggestions?

I too have purchased a set based on your write up. Very happy with the weather shields, but the 3M tape must be old, and the plastic is not level where it should attach. Had the wife grab the passenger one that was coming off. Ended up going to Bunnings and getting some 20kg exterior double sided tape that is 10mm wide. I have attached this to the existing 3M tape, and adhered to the QM. It has been in place for a week now, and seems to have adhered really well.
Still at $80 Au delivered is much cheaper than the Climair ones for $260 Au, plus almost as much shipping.
