So, after trying jb-weld. the first bond didn't hold. It has been pretty cold outside. I left it 24 hrs and it popped off 2 mins later after fixing my mount. I thought it might be down to the cold and the time I left it, so tried again with a little more patience. 48hrs and same result. I...

cool, cheers. I will give that a try

I can get a pic when it's light. I'm never going to attach anything to the roof bars at the point of this fixing. It just needs securing a little stronger that a clip (current). the roof bars are attached with 3 other screws so they are secure. It's a real pain, but this is a temporary fix...

unfortunately i'm not able to use these as I cannot now get a hole in the place they need to go. The hardened steel will be nye on impossible to bore out

Cgas, you say that but I only followed Hive's buying guide, which was my point. It states if you have a combi boiler (which I have) buy a single channel kit (which I did). IU you have a separate water tank (which I do not) buy a dual channel kit (which I did not).

I have well and truly screwed (literally) a fixing on my land rover to attach the roof bars. I've snapped off a screw in the hole and whilst trying to remove it by a mixture of ez-out and drilling I now have a second screw snapped off and a snapped drill bit and a snapped ez-out bit stuck in...

I don't have a separate water tank. It is a combi boiler just with different controls for the water. The hive thermostat I have has a button on the top for water boost. I have been told that I need to hook into the current controls on the boiler and bypass something. Just no Idea what...

Hi, I have a Worcester Bosch Heatslave 12/14 Oil Boiler. The unit has controls on the front that control both the water timer / advance and the heating timer / advance. I bought a Hive system and have successfully connected to the heating side of the boiler. I am not sure how I connect the...
