Was that the place that also has Toyota Hiace's? How were they to deal with? PM me if you wish.

Thanks

Very nice. Am liking the wide bed..

Forgot to say that I solved my problem. Despite the handbrake light coming on/off etc, the problem did lie in the switch on the back of the handbrake. Gave it a good spray of switch cleaner, plenty of waggle, and lo and behold, AFT back to normal..

PS - sounds like there could be some really good musicians or ex musicians on here. What would be the chances of getting a Bongo Band together for one, and one only gig?

Good idea, think I'll do it.

Derek

Done and dusted, many thanks. New LED's in there now, but actually not a lot brighter than the old ones. Found a dead, red spider and some other Japanese winged creatures in there..
