I don’t often have rear seat passengers anymore. The speaker set up isn’t really loud enough for them though, but it’s fine for the front seat passengers. I imagine those with younger kids sitting in the back would have their own ICE with headphones perhaps listening to their own music.

Had a nice anniversary weekend at Burns Farm near Castlerigg stone circle.

https://www.classiccarstereo.co.uk/shop/classic-car-speakers/autosound-classic-car-stereo-speakers/7-x-5-dual-voice-coil-loudspeaker/ I fitted this dual voice speaker under the dash. It replaced the old factory speaker. This adds to the door speakers which weren’t enough on their own.

I’ve done 163 now so still got plenty to do.

I saw one or two bays on my recent trip to Loch Laggan in Scotland and about half a dozen T25s all gave me a wave. I usually wave back but if I’m hanging onto the steering wheel with both hands it difficult 😅😂

A pole and three clamps work best for my Vango airbeam

Can’t believe you were the only one on the site! That’s my sort of campsite 😀
