Anyone here have the hour glass doors, and do you still have the lower bumpers that slot into the strikers, there seems to be nothing that holds them in except their tightness in the slot. Have to come up with some way of holding them in.

We are going to travel from Broome to Ellendale Lake and Fitzroy Crossing. Has anyone stayed at either Willare Roadhouse or Derby. I realise its a short drive to either as a stoppover, but we have reason to do so. Any information on Willare Roadhouse or Derby as a stoppover would be appreciated.

Cannot get an interstate script filled in NT. Told we have to go to a local doctor to get a new script.
