End Caps for Philips Discovery TV
Hi does anyone know where I can find a single end cap for a Philips Discoverer TV? I have a feeling the answer is going to be no! But I was wondering if anyone had started to 3D print them.

I will show my lack of knowledge, what do you mean by “End Caps”?

The covers that clip onto the visors hinges is what I took it to mean.
They are usually missing Cheers Mike T

This.
Crossed with Mike, they often seem to go missing. I also believe the left and right may be different, but I may be wrong. Last edited by 60 oldjohn; 5th Oct 2018 at 12:50 pm. Reason: added last line |

Re: End Caps for Philips Discovery TV
At one display I did I overheard a wife asking her husband what is that, .... the answer, its a Henry "hoover". I think its the feet that look like wheels that caused the confusion. . John. Another photo with visor up. Last edited by 60 oldjohn; 5th Oct 2018 at 1:43 pm. |
