hi all

i havent been on here for a while and after some help if possible please

i have a southern cross camper trailer with slide out kitchen .the issue was the flexi hose coming

from under the stove to the bayonet plug at the rear of the camper had to be tucked up under the

stove and by doing so the steel mesh on the flexi hose frayed so when connecting it was like hundreds

of needles so decided to take stove top off to replace the flexi hose,,,, thats no problem as it came off easy

and can now replace the flexi hose ...the issue is the stove top was fixed with sikaflex and not really very strong

and needs to be fitted more securely with clips somehow if possible a new stove isnt an option 

maybe as its a chinese import the stuff used wasnt good quality 

so i need to fit the stove top somehow so wont move and if needed i can undo again

to replace battery for igniter or if i ever have to repalace the flexi hose again

the sikaflex around the flange of the stove top isnt very big so doesnt grip too well

can anyone help please thnks in advance
