Thermal Insulation Screens...?

Post by penfold118 »

Hi All, I am sure its been asked a few times but are these needed ? Pick up the camper on Friday in Buxton and were off, well once we find a campsite near ish by (any suggestions welcome)

Just wondered if people use these and do they work, had a quick search and there seem 2 types, one you wrap around the outside and ones you use suction cups and attach to the windscreen internaly. Pro's and con's of either ?

Wrap around is betterer, although £75 so not the cheapest option. If you fancy it why not drop in at The Duke, it's on the A515 Buxton>Ashbourne road 5 miles out of Buxton. Drop me a line and I'll clear it with Derek, although I'm sure he won't mind having some company

Nothing to crazy...yet

Thermal curtains, a set of leveling ramps, a electric hook up cable and a 2 way spirit level thing !

If it all turns up as described then its a bargain, less than £70 inc postage. (you just never know with e-bay, so fingers crossed)

Be warned ... if you put it on the passenger side and mount it where the original holes are in the door card the glove box won't open unless you open the door.
