So just to save all the trouble if you doubt you'll switch them on don't bother fitting any wiring😁😁

Did you solve the random clicking though? I had this in my splitty and it turned out the indicator switch/ boss has moved up the steering column and when the steering wheel was in a certain position it was earthing out the headlamps exactly the same as using the flasher! You could see shiny...

Did you pay cash or did you use a debit or credit card? If you used either of the latter two methods of payment then pursue either a chargeback with your bank in the case of a debit card payment or use Section 75 or the Consumer Credit Act to claim a full or partial refund from the credit card...

Do you have an auto darkening welding helmet ? - if you don't then they are a game changer just don't use an incandescent bulb (if you can still get them🤔) in any work lamps as they cause them to auto darkening prematurely!

I fitted led strip lights that incorporate a push switch in the body so it minimises the wiring needed, also I do have one of those fancy led head torches with the " wavey" switch but it can be a bit random when it comes to deciding whether it wants to switch on or off with a wave and does have...

If you have a set of jump leads then next time you get a " no start" before you do anything else get just one of the leads and clip one end directly to the battery and the other to any shiny or clean unpainted surface on the engine and try it again - if it starts it's likely to be an earthing...

Ozzie , check yours doesn't already have an led as I've had mine for years and didn't realise until recently it has an led - if the magnet has a hole in the centre then it likely has one and you need to remove a piece of paper that isolates the batteries before it will work.

0f course the other thing to try is one of those eBay endoscopes that plug into your phone. They tend to come with various hooks/magnets that fit on the end so you can actually see what you're fishing for. It saved the day for me when I dropped the steering wheel woodruff key down inside the...

Don't know if you realised but that magnet also incorporates a led light in the middle of it too!

Locksmiths sell powdered graphite lubricant in little " puffer bottles" for lubricating locks strangely! It also works wonders on your bus door locks too and as it isn't sticky like grease no dirt sticks to it.

Would you be able to lash up a temporary fix using butyl self amalgamating tape wrapped around the existing boots? It should be readily available from a motor factors or parts store.

If you are forced to pay for the further repairs see if you can pay by credit card and maybe make the point that you are " paying under protest" , a legal term that makes it easier to take legal action at a later date if necessary. Then make a claim for the cost of repairs from your credit card...

Just be aware for safety's sake that those 3 way fridges that use the disposable gas canisters aren't really intended to be used in enclosed spaces such as a van with the doors closed but rather in things that are well ventilated like an awning. I got very close to buying one before I realised!

I believe you can get watertight preformed fibreglass ones for exactly the situation you describe regarding the high water table. Best installed during a dry spell though as you wouldn't want it bobbing up like a cork before the concrete floor was set.....

The Waeco/Domestic fridges come with a brushed metal finished door insert as standard however this is designed to be removable and is just a panel within a frame so that can be removed to allow customisation with whatever finish you want. If you wanted to be really creative why not take a photo...
