Hi all. Many thanks for your replies. It is a tricky one , hence my initial enquiry to see if anyone could help. In response; Paperhouselad- this is an option I was contemplating as I can now possibly get hold of some headrests. Taking them out wouldn't be too onerous either. It is just working out ...

Thanks 'Covkid' for taking the time to reply. That would be another possible option. I am trying to think of it from all angles, and will look at the logistics of your option, which shouldn't be too much of a problem. We are no longer going away over the next few weeks now due to not being able to g...

Hi I am looking to try and fit rear headrests/ highback seat to make it safer for my children. but am not sure of best route to take. I own a 1989 T25 Autosleeper. I have the original fitted rear seats. The rear seats in the autosleeper conversions are not the metal rock & roll bed, but are basi...

Angelo EVS Many thanks for your reply and information.(Even if it was noisier than a stock exhaust, it has to be quieter than the holed one that is on it now!). My camper is at the garage now with the recently arrived exhaust ready to be fitted. It was too late for me to ask him to send the manifold...

Hi Angelo EVS i have an 89 registered camper with the studs in the same state. I have ordered a VW Speedshop exhaust yesterday with the intention of getting it fitted by a local reputable VW mechanic (who said he can sort out the studs!!) at the same time as he is sorting the tracking and a service ...

Many thanks for your replies and advice. I have searched some of the web links mentioned, and will work out the best option, but at least now i have got some good options to choose from. In the interim since writing this post, the gearbox went, and now the exhaust needs replacing, so i am afraid the...

Thanks for your thread, i know this obviously isnt a useful reply, but just a confirmation that you are not alone!! I was going to write a query, and to be honest if i had written a thread, i would have written it identical to 'Kentishvanman'. My scenario is identical, but with probably a bit more n...

Regarding my post a while ago about 'stuck in 3rd gear'. Just to let you know, it was the 3rd and 4th gear syncro that had gone. (or something terminal anyway!). After reading some previous threads, i contacted one of the mentioned persons, Aidan Talbot. Aidan specialises in gearboxes and after spea...

All Many thanks for your offers of information. i had mislaid all my logon information and have not replied to you before now. I am now back up and running, which is more than i can say for our trusty camper (terminal gearbox problems!), but that is in the process of being rectified, and i promise t...

Hi thanks for your thread regarding 'stuck in 3rd gear' I have an 89 T25 autospleeper camper, and after a weeks holiday in sunny Tenby, exactly the same thing happened when i went from 4th to 3rd. We did manage to get it out of gear with the help of the roadside recovery, by taking it out of 3rd wit...

Thanks for your reply. i wish i knew where i had seen the foil based stuff. it was both insulating/ soundproofing and fire retardent. i remember seeing a picture of it fitting the lid perfectly. Thanks for your link. I have looked at your link and will definately bear this stuff in mind and hopefull...

Hi all, just wondering if anyone can point me in the right/ best direction. i am looking at replacing the original insulation/ soundproofing that is found on the underside of the T25 engine lid. The existing stuff is starting to fall apart and i know of at least 3 people who have had engine fires re...
