Where is £200 mentioned I thought they were about £115 inc p&p

ps many of us [ me included ] have gone for cheaper options and regretted it !!!! :oops:

if you dont need tray see below

I've often thought, just how important is 'the tray' I have a LB and split charge relay but the battery just sits in the space provided with a crude fixing clamp. There is a split charge relay but as far as I can tell, the only thing that runs off it is a roof mounted DVD player.

Scroll down to where the actual old advert is,
then on the righthand side you will see his name under the "Top Rated Seller", click the name,
It will take you to his feedback page etc. on the Menu on the Lefthand side is "Contact member" link click it,
you can then send him a message, you may have to sign in in to Ebay if your not already signed in of course.
