Re: How to wire a heated rear window switch

Mocki,

Re: How to wire a heated rear window switch

I forgot to ask you Mocki,

I've got an '87 van, is that considered "a late van" and where/what is "position 11"?
Cheers

Re: How to wire a heated rear window switch

Thanks Mocki,
I didn't know there was an electrical questions section.

When you say the "wiring goes along the top", where exactly is "the top" and any hints about getting the wire along this section?
Cheers

Re: Removal of T3 Westie roofrack?

To jamesc76, They are flat head screws which won't turn when using a big flat screw driver. Have been advised to try heating the screwhead (with a hairdrier) then squirting in WD40 - no luck! :( To metalmick8y, Camera is broken, sorry no pics. The 4x screws(one on each side of r-rk) don't go through...

Re: T25 Westfalia Joker rubber seals for pop-top/luggage rack

Now I understand - hadn't heard about the Atlantic/Californian T25's!
Had been trying to write "Cali" in italics but it came out weird!

Thanks for your tip Lloyd, will let the site know how I get on once I try removing the luggage rack....wish me luck!

Thanks Lloyd for your comment. What do you mean by "luggage rack cali's?"

Once I get the roof rack off, I intend to g...
