Autotrail D trim needed

[RoaminRog]

Has anyone got a small length of Autotrail D trim sitting around doing nothing.
Mine is in the middle lane of the M6 after a pillock decided to pull out of the n/s lane into the side of me.
I understand it is available from Autotrail but only in 4 metre lengths. I need maybe 4 or 5 inches please.

Not sure if they do White Rog, but B&Q do a D line trunking in a woodgrain I use it for running cable unobtrusively in vans, it comes by the metre and you could put it on with silicone stuff.

D-Line Decorative trunking | DIY at B&Q

This D-Line Mini+ Trunking has a 1/2 round profile which subtly blends with décor, making it ideal for hiding cables from wall mounted TVs, or covering cables around desks in offices.

Just in case:-

This wood-effect wood effect D-Line self extinguishing PVC trunking is suitable for blends above skirting & subtly hides cable drops. Hinged and click lock lid for easy fitting

Also in quadrant, very useful for new USB sockets or camera cables.

Is there the same trim on opposite side Rodger you might get someone to copy it on a 3 D printer if only small like you say.

Rog, Toolstation have quite a range of D-Line trim, including end stops. Might be possible to use a jointing piece and caps for £2 or so?

I suppose it’s a good idea Wully, but its aluminium and clips onto what’s left on the body.

Thanks Steve, but D trim is aluminium

Would that matter Rog? Once it's on if you can't tell, would you be happy with that versus a 4m length.

 

[RoaminRog]

Will see how it turns out. There’s a chap on YouTube who had a similar problem, but he bought 4 metres. I’ve asked him if he has any spare.

 

[Pudsey Bear]

That'd be good.

Here’s hoping

I bet there a few people after short lengths? Buy the 4M one and sell the remainder in short cuts on eBay?

It might come to that yet David, thanks.

Is it possible to see the opposite side Roger? There are plastics out there ( I may have some thing ) that may suit, 5 to 6 mm thick.

It’s not actually plastic Terry, it’s extruded aluminium…. but thanks anyway

I’ve just written to O’Learys and included a photograph, so will see if they can help.
Many thanks to cheyenne

Yes I got that Rog, I chucking in another option as I have white plastic, I’m saying plastic flashing type material that may do if you are stuck, I post to you if required.

Edit, scrub that, I better understand what you require now.

I really appreciate you trying to help Terry. Let’s wait and see if O’Learys come back with anything.

Panic over Guys.
I have managed to buy a foot length from Rich Davey on YouTube

Just for the record, O’Learys don’t stock this item anymore.
