My rear door is pretty damn squeaky! I think its just the locator thats the main problem.
Any easy fixes I should know about?

Cheers guys! I might buy some of that white lithium grease, it'd be handy to have on hand...

Is it squeaky due to the weight of the tyre and wheel?? Try throwing some tape (not much, but enough to "tighten" up the locking mechanism as it were) around the top locking bar thingy, and the one on the large barn door also .. I did that, and whilst it wears through after a while, it definitely stops the squeaks ...My rear door is pretty damn squeaky! I think its just the locator thats the main problem.

Hey Biggus, Try using heatshrink on the locking bar, it lasts for ages.

This may be a silly question, but how do you get the heat shrink on there, some pics would be great.

Good question. My GU8 does the exact same thing, as did my GU2....
I got a heatshrink from etsa. The bloke just handed me a peice, didn't have to pay for it
The heatshrinks from etsa actually have adhesive in them so even if you have to cut it to get it on there, it'll stick to itself and not shrink away from itself... Works a charm!
