I know this topic has come up before, but not as far as I can tell with the brand of tap in my vehicle. We are new to this game so please excuse any obvious ignorance. The cold water tap in the drop down basin in the shower room is constantly dripping/trickling. It is necessary to switch the pump off to stop it. The tap is the mixer type 9see picture) & there does not appear to be any way of disassembling & replacing O-rings. f this is not possible, how to i go about replacing the whole tap unit? I presume there are screws under the little plastic caps that hold the vanity unit onto the bulkhead, but I don't really want to start taking anything apart without knowing what I am doing! Any help or advice gratefully received.

It could well be easier to remove the back wall of the toilet compartment (open the rear doors and undo the screw caps etc) to get to the back of the sink to check the pipe work. as for the taps I dont have these particular ones so cant comment although they are readily available on ebay etc to replace but once again you need access to the back of the sink to do it. I personally think removing the back panel would be easier than removing sealant and removing the sink to re fit and re seal

Hi Nedediah,
I agree with Harper22, the back panel removal is the way to go.

Please take a minute to say hello here......
