Thanks guys

Hi :D I wonder if anyone can help - my mechanic has said that 2 metal or steel pipes that run from the front of the van to the back have corroded and water is just leaking out of them. He can get the 2 pipes but for £70 each, so I was wondering if anyone knows where I can get them cheaper, if that's...

Cool advice there, thanks Arvi
Great to know these little tips!

Don't worry Dave!

I'm doing it myself, with a print-out of your advice
It'll have to wait until payday, and I''m getting a cordless drill with 6mm bit like you suggested.

They would break it - they are numptys

Hi Keith!
Ta for reply - please mail me if you're up this way. We could have a little meet up at the local beach, tea / wine / beers/ lunch etc

Not so long 'till spring now!

Guys at local breakers have said £200 plus vat for

pop top roof
both doors
rear hatch
bumpers

Is this a good price?

Many Thanks for your advice

Hhhhhmmmmmmmm, I've just been looking at Misses Jens pics, it looks too hard for me, even with a helper

Maybe I would be best to get a Timber Tech high top, as they know what they're doing........

Whatdya think?

Hi :D I have found a full-length pop-top at our local breakers - the stripy one, bolted on to one side of the van and 'catches' securing it down on the other side...... The guys won't get it off for me, as they can't seem to be bothered, but said I can get it off myself. Well I am just a chick, but ...
