Re: Anchoring kitchen units

Hi, I've built a flat pack type kitchen from MGD designs (I think that's the name) To put into my T25. It's ready to go in but I don't know what's a good way to secure it to the van body. To prevent it moving or toppling over. Has anyone tips on this? Thankyou. https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/2022...

Re: Looking for circuit board for dash

I can't help with a membrane type but could help you with a fully assembled PCB version as shown below though I prefer to refurbish the complete Dashpod on the bench and test it, including carrying out any necessary repairs to the dashpod casing. Have you established where the problem is with your ...

That looks a good job. Was the wiring for the dimmer simple? Another problem I have is how to attach the round LEDs to the roof panels. There's no relief that I could use to hold them to the panel as they're complely round.

12 V LED lights from IKEA

I was looking at LED lighting for my van in a few places and they are so expensive! (like 27 euro for just one light) Then I was in IKEA the other day and saw their LED packs and noticed that the voltage is actually 12v, the plug converts it to 220v. So...cut off the plug and voila, 12v LED lighting...

Re: Corriboard interior panels!! Great idea/Terrible idea?

Some good points there i hadn't considered, thanks. Drumming could very well be an issue, they do make noise when you tap them. Nice tip on the hot wire/foam cutters they would make it a lot handier for doing the corners and around the handle bit on the sliding door. I'm going to give it a go anyway...

Corriboard interior panels!! Great idea/Terrible idea?

Hi guys. As i was looking at all these election posters around the place I got to thinking; Hmmm..has anyone ever thought to use plastic corriboard sheets as the base for their interior panels? I'm thinking why not? They're very lightweight, fairly sturdy, easy to shape. Just one thing, will the car...

Re: First post. CVRT/DOE/NCT help!

Ugh! Would you believe I lost the keys to the van! Not just that van but I bought another, 1986 T25 x-german army with full westy interior and lost the keys for both vans! So needless to say I missed the cvrt date. Luckily Collerans locksmiths in Galway were able to fix me up with a new set (€30.00!...

Re: First post. CVRT/DOE/NCT help!

gary1998 Thanks for that. I actually met him before last Christmas! He's a good guy, he advised me not to get the van body work done/restored due to the extent of the rot and the high cost. However, I was already past the point of no return at that stage having already got the van converted from pet...
