Re: Flasher Unit removal
It seems they just need to be pulled downward. I unscrewed the bolt securing the fixing bracket in order to find out.

Flasher Unit removal
Hi All - probably obvious to many but how do you release the flasher unit from its mounting bracket ? I've got a problem with no feed to my rear drivers indicator and trying to trace the fault. Cheers Jim

Wheel bearing kit
Does anyone have any images of the rear wheel bearing kits ? I wanted one ASAP so got one delivered to my local motor factors within the hour. The garage advised I needed a seals kit as the bearing kit didn't have one and so I got one next day delivery from a well known bongo parts supplier. The gar...

Re: JAL Skylift -v- Drivelodge elevating roof
I dont carry the big metal pole thingy that comes with the musroom roof option. I stand on the slidingdoor step and push up. I am just shy of 6' but must admit it seems to be getting harder to lift (struts in need of regassing ?). My method is to tie a climbing cord to the eyelet and again stand on ...

Re: Aircon ... is it front only or dual?
For the first time in 4 years of Bongo ownership I've finally got round to seriously considering having my aircon checked out and re-gassed. It has a JAL rear conversion so no rear heater controls etc. I bypassed the rear heater matrix following a leak at the matrix last year but have never touched ...

Re: bodywork advice
no I've definitely not caused any structural damage just cosmetic - I had a local body shop quote £300 but they also suggested I get any old silver paint and spray it in which I took to mean they basically didn't want the job

bodywork advice
A few weeks ago I managed to break my rear light cluster and gouge the corner of the rear bumper. Having tried to prep, prime and spray, the results spoke for themselves and I was reminded that I am useless at spraying and so I've been making enquiries to have it professionally sprayed by someone hi...
