Re: IS there a search feature on this Website

Hello:

I am not seeing a search option on the left side or right side or top/bottom.
Looked with both IE and FF and do not see one.

Is there one and how do I access it?

Thanks

>>(4) will ask schuco engineer if staples in the wool are to be there or not. If not they will remove and replace.

Nuview just called and they told me they talked with a schuco engineer.
Schuco said about 2 months ago they started to put staples in the wool seals to keep them in place.
