Re: Auto Transmission Pipes Replacement

What an absolute pig of a job that is. Fortunately I'll never have to do it again but I recommend taking it to a garage with ramps rather than DIY at home.

Auto Transmission Pipes Replacement

Hi, advice needed please before the van accidentally goes on fire. I'm replacing the auto transmission pipes and have managed to disconnect the hoses and the 4 clamps holding them to the chassis but can't see how they come out. With the shape of them I think they're the 1st thing attached to the van...

Re: Exodus Roof Box on AFT

Thanks I want the half width. If the issue is actually putting the box up that's OK as it'll be done at home on ladders. If I do go for the new dawn full length rack I might get the ladders that go with it to take away as they break down to smaller pieces. Not keen on u-bolts attaching to square bar...

Exodus Roof Box on AFT

As the roof bars for a bongo are steel square box section from New Dawn, how do people attach the exodus roof box I've seen on top of them?

Re: This is a strange one.

Almost certainly there will be some body warmth traveling through the bag then sheepskin thing then mattress but I'm surprised as the plastic is actually wet to the touch and I have to dry the mattress out. It's definitely not coming from the outside as last week it didn't rain when I was away. It's...

This is a strange one.

So firstly the factory plastic is still on the bit you lie on in the roof section which I've never taken it off as haven't felt the need too. When I sleep up there I have a velvet type material covered foam mattress and the Bongo sheep skin type thing on top off that, then in a sleeping bag. I also ...

Re: Fiamma f35 vs f45

I bought the 45 and I'm very pleased with it. Takes 2 mins to put up (not including high wind straps). I used tamper proof bolts on the brackets gives a bit more piece of mind when it's parked up off sites.

Re: Change speakers

My old JBL's were 6" and shallow enough not to foul the metalwork but they are discontinued and they don't do a replacement. This is quite fortunate as I won't be buying JBL's again. On both fronts the outside rubber had split all the way around and one rear had lost base I assume an electrical...

Front Speaker Woes

My JBL GTO 628 has gone to speaker heaven. Went to halfords and found a budget speaker the same depth but turns out it won't fit in diameter wise.

Anyway, people must have changed their speakers since the JBL's have discontinued. What is the preferred model nowadays?

cheers Spud.

Chinese translation?

Looks a good little lamp and a ciggy to usb connector would sort the charging.
