Re: Fly fishing rods ?

I know nothing about fly rods, but you need to give details of the other items (make, model etc.)
Tripods and reels vary from less than £20 to several hundred pounds.

Re: Hibernating Bongo

If it won't be moved for several months, it would be worth putting it on axle stands to avoid damaging the tyres.

Re: Vitrifrigo Fridge not working

What system have you got to charge the leisure battery when engine running? I have a Zig panel and it needs to be switched to Towing rather than On Site.

Surprised that bongospares hasn't been mentioned. they turn around a lot of bongos so maybe stuff does not sit on shelves too long. Tsk tsk - not allowed to recommend anyone on here - PMs only [-X :wink: :lol: :-$ :-# :-" :-& [-( :-k 8) Get it right Mike :roll: See Ian's post below - Yawn....

Re: More questions regarding coolboxes / fridges etc!

Three way fridges usually only work on 12V when the engine is running. They use gas or 230v when stationery.
I am amazed that you could run your coolbox for so long each day - they flattened my leisure battery in about 5 hours.

Re: Refused insurance

If you put your location in your profile, we could probably advise better. As you say, your location makes a heck of a difference.

Re: front passenger seat

Bruce, when I had my passenger seat reversed, the MOT tester said it had to be turned around to pass - no idea if he was right though.
Scanner fitted the same seat as me - might be worth asking if his passed whilst reversed.

Just a heads up that these guys are now offering a front swivel seat: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dNA1lyoz9rc :P No idea on insurance implication.
Unless the seat has been crash tested, I doubt if the insurance company would be happy.

Re: choice of ebay rear wing panels any ideas

They look the same to me as well 8) Suspect it's another case of adding Bongo to the name and trebling the price :evil:
