Title: Got my evil duck....... How do you stick it down???
Post by: landyman Ash on September 14, 2005, 12:14:12

Got my evil hot rod duck off ebay.  Dead chuffed  :D

Apart from now expecting my insurance premiums to fall due to the new "protection" how do you get the dam thing to stay where he is?

Keeps rolling off the dash.....  :?

So what did you lot do to stop them rolling around?

Never even thought of looking in the workshop!  Looks a big job so I may get my mates over to help and Ive printed it off for referance but I think if we are careful I think we can do it  :wink:

Good old evil ducks  :twisted:

The best stuff is clear silicon..... But be carfull, if you apply to much
when you push it down in the required position the silicon will squidge
out and your duck will look like it's sitting in a duck pond.  :lol:

COuld swop him between trucks then....

Trouble is I have enough problems clearing the mud off the inside as the outside.  The velcro may make the problem worse.....

When I finish a days playing, there is as much mud on the inside as is on the outside  :twisted:

Now that I do like!!!  There are several screw holes in the dash and that way when I drown it again I can let him have a swim whilst my mates laugh at me.....  :wink:
