I have got three lots of lights, two 12v spots in the front cab, an LED strip light in the kitchen area and two spots in t...

Buzfreeze Weekend

Is anybody planning to go to Buzfreeze this weekend? Anybody been before, and is it a good event?

This will be our first VW event since buying our 1984 Westfalia Hightop so would be good to meet any fellow members there.

Re: Fan Blower

I think the switch is ok! Looks like a seized motor then. Has anybody changed one? It looks like a pig of a job

Westfalia Hightop Interior Panels

A couple of the interior roof lining panels and the inner panel of the sliding door have seen better days.
Can anybody recommend somewhere to pick up a match for original Westfalia panelling?

Fan Blower

The fan blower has stopped working in my 1984 T25 which is going to be a real pain as the weather turns.
I know that the fuse is fine as it is hte same one that does the windscreen wipers. Has anybody got some tips before I start ripping the dashboard apart to get to the fan?

What type of engine have I got?

I have put my new T25 on the 'Garage' but am not sure if i have selected the right engine type.
It is definatly a 1.9 air cooled but the part numbers in the drop down menu dont mean much to me.

Any ideas? It is a 1984 Westfalia

Lhd headlights

We own a left hand drive westfalia with head light adapter stickers fitted. To avoid fitting the stickers everytime they come off we were thinking of buying some rhd headlights and simply swapping them over. Is it that simple any advice welcomed

Re: Westfalia Hightop Cover

Thanks for the advice. I have put a couple of pics on the garage. Can you see them on there? The van has been well insulated, and has the westfalia double glazing so it does not look like we have any excuses!
