Re: Roof bars and roof box on an AFT Bongo

Got the stainless steel roof bars from Ava Leisure £110 but they fix straight in the holes on the aft and a Thule roof box 2nd hand for £40. The long pointy one.Think it's a Pacific. Had to drill holes to make it fit but was dead easy - a five minute job. Use folding 3 step ladder to access the box ...

Which radiator?

Our radiator is seeping from the top left corner. Not too bad at the moment but am going to buy a replacement. I can get fitted at my local garage for £60.00 plus vat. The garage said that a pattern radiator is no different to a genuine one as made of the same stuff and has same warranty. I have fou...

Re: Porlock Hill

We drove up there in our citroen saxo a couple of years back behind a Shearings coach which started to struggle and smoke a bit at the back! Thought is was going to start rolling back down :shock: Watch out for Countisbury Hill as well which is a bit further on and heads down into Lynmouth. Didn't c...

Re: Speedo in kmh - best course of action?

We got an mph faceplate fitted by Bell Hill Garage so the speed reads in miles but the distance in kmh. It seemed to run better without the chip too.

mikeonb4c, was it easy to make your roof lining? Any chance of some pics. Would like to be able to sleep in the roof when it gets a bit colder as well & not freeze!

We were originally using the glue to stick some led lights to the ceiling (the silver duck tape didn't work & they kept falling off). I did actually glue my fingers together but managed to prise them apart before it was too late :oops:

Our roof is silver on outside. Just put some superglue on a couple of the rivet things this afternoon as they had come loose, seems to have worked fingers crossed. When it rains heavily, we get a slight damp patch come through at the back. Not sure whether to put some waterproofing stuff on the outs...
