HI I have a set of Mazda alloys - no idea which vehicle they are originally from. I'd like to put these on the Bongo - is it OK to use these? Please see the photos attached. The tyres currently fitted to the alloys don't have a high enough load rating so I will swap them for a set that do. 169697174...

Hi I'm looking to get a coolant alarm.. will probably get the combination alarm which monitors coolant level and engine temperature. Considering the Haydn units. I heard that the TM2 looks kind of cool and a bit retro with its glowing LED display (in keeping with the era of the van) but that the dis...

Thanks for all the replies on this thread guys... some great info on here and glad that some others are also looking to insulate vans for the great British winter. Life's been really busy these past few weeks but hope to crack on with this ASAP

Hi I would like to insulate my Bongo as much as possible so that it's as warm as can be for the winter and for any future travels. It's currently pretty stripped down with all the panels and headlining off and I can easily pull up the carpet. What is the best way to go about doing this? I bought som...

Thanks for you posts guys

Thanks RooSmith - good to know. I'm thinking about getting a factory tint window (if I can) so there'll be no danger of the film degrading with time

Hi folks I'm thinking about getting a factory tint rear window fitted. If I do this, is it still possible to see (and use) the rear view parking mirror located at the top of the tailgate? If so, is it still useable at night (with reversing lights on)? How is vision through the tinted rear glass gene...

Here is the picture (hope this works!) https://postimg.org/image/bocgpbezx/ You can see where I've had a go at scraping away the melted plastic / hard glue material (not sure which it is) on the top 2 small circles.. but the badge remains held in fast. I don't want to apply too much pressure in case...

Thanks for your replies guys. As for the badge I'm not much help have you tried gently heat if it's glued or a paint scrapper up the back I Haven't tried any heat. What would be the best source of heat? A flame at close quarters for short period of time? I've tried scraping the hard stuff off the ba...

Hi I've been trying to remove the grille badge to give the grille a respray but can't get it off. It looks like it might be melted on. There are 2 small circular holes through which the badge has been affixed. There is also a large circle below but it's unclear if the badge is also fixed onto this. ...

The rear controls are in the recessed "armrest" part of the panel, beneath the carpeted top section of the panel that runs alongside the window (from memory.)
Possibly this whole panel was removed for your conversion?

Decided to man up and took out the whole lot including the metal pipe section (the plastic section can't be removed without.) Thought I'd try something outside my comfort zone. Big job, but mostly psychological having reached this point. Mostly in addition to the above it was removing cables attache...

THere is a control panel for the rear heating / AC on the panel beneath the 1st rear window on the driver's side (ie the first row of rear seats on a Bongo.) This includes a selector to either have the air directed to the top vents or the bottom vent in the rear, or a mix of the two (similar to that...
