I have invested a lot of time in this li'l camper. I am 65 and don't want to be half way up a mountain for something silly to go ping!
I have just had a habitation chappy go over everything, £100 for peace of mind, I think was worth it. Especially after he tested the trickle charger that my mechanicy man had supposedly checked....it smoked !!!!!!
Anyhoo, gonna check out the places you all have advised..............I am in Colchester.
Thank you everyone for helping.....shall upload or download what I have done thus far! (All reversible)
Piles of smiles! xxxxxx
Colchester you say? You're a lucky chap as it's an easy enough run up to Grantham

If you live in Colchester, you've got Frank's Bus Parts in Walton-on-sea. Frank is in and out of Germany regularly and has a pile of S/H stuff too. Great fella - we go back years and I have much respect for him. He doesn't refurb but may be able to source you a very good one.
