Right next item to sort out.  Door checks

I have asked Mark when his replacements are back in stock, is this all I need to repair?

Hi Mark

I bought two original ones from Mark which broke on first use far too brittle material, Mark then supplied me with a pair of much better material, but probably too soft this time, but they are working, though not as well as originals when in good condition. No experience on what material Omicron are using, but I think that the price is not too silly if they work well.

Hi Mark

If the plastics are unbroken, then that is the best solution for now.
