Try http://www.proudtopop.co.uk" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; and use a normal starter battery under the passenger seat instead of a leisure battery.
If you search leisure battery you'll find lots of info and most people here including myself use a standard starting battery instead of a leisure one

Thanks guys

Loads of places sell leisure batterys, yes you can use a normal battery but they dont make lesuire batterys for a laugh! They last a lot longer with out a charge and hold more power in them (ok they are bigger) I would strongly suggest getting a lesuire battery esp if you plan going away to one place for a more than a couple of days without the problems of a flat battery!

Had a canvas from campershop.co.uk last summer. Decided to go for self fit. Quote for fitting was huge. Not difficult if you have a sunny day, but if you can, and need to, sort out the roof lining while you're at it. Wish I'd done mine... the flock has had it. The canvas is good, our fitting ok, just not quite as taut as a pro job. On the battery, decide what you want to run and how long for. Talk to your local caravan accessory people... or the guy who services the van?
