    VW Heritage bumper brackets

    Hi all, Big time lurker, small time poster here... I always find myself standing on my rear bumper to reach the Westy luggage rack (I know I probably shouldn’t). Anyway, I’ve bought some corner brackets to stiffen up the bumpers when not running splash pans, see below...

    Multiple Bluetooth Speakers in your bus?

    Thanks Chad, To be honest, four was probably much, I am a bit of an audiophile but the acoustics are never going to be great! And yep - I was just going to go for re chargeable units. The battery in my current one lasts ages. Thanks

    Multiple Bluetooth Speakers in your bus?

    Hi, I currently run a speaker in the original position on the dash and two pod speakers in the footwell. I've got a period radio with a aux input and I only ever play music through my phone via Spotify or on an old iPod that's got loads of tracks. Interested in getting some speakers in the...

    VW Craps out!! Advice please?!

    Hi, So checked all the electrics, seemed normal and good spark. Pulled hose off carb and pumped some fuel out - seemed ok too. Gave the carb a good tap all round - said the wife 'ahhh, it'll be fine'. Started up no problem, drove the 25km and back to Bergerac for the day and didn't miss a...

    VW Craps out!! Advice please?!

    Will do Stu, thanks for the reply. It ran great between the issues which is why i thought fuel problem. I had my fuel lines all changed before I came away, and they also drained the tank and cleaned the removable filter inside the tank (didn't know there was one!). Could doing this have...

    Summit Thermal Blinds

    Hi, I've come away with my wife and our 9 month old daughter, we're in France and it's quite warm (38 degrees yesterday!) so I bought the summit blinds to keep the heat out rather than in, also for the blackout factor as it doesn't get dark until after 10:30. The quality isn't great to be...

    VW Craps out!! Advice please?!

    Hi all, So, I'm in the dordogne in France at the moment - lovely by the way! Was tootling along quite nicely along a quiet road around 40mph when the bus lurched, backfired (well, sounded like a bang) lurched again and simply cut out. Never had any issues like it before, always been a really...

    So I bought a RHD 1970 Westy!

    Congratulations on your purchase!! I also have a RHD westy from SA - we are a rare breed! Do you have much history from your bus? Do you have the buddy seat with the interior? It's one of my favourite parts of my bus. Looks like you're getting on well with it all anyway, keep the pics...

    Camping heater

    Ditto.. I bought a Dimplex Chico. It's a small 700w radiator but It's not oil filled so doesn't smell like some of them do. Works a treat!

    Three belts up front?

    Hi, I have a non walkthrough bus (1970) with a bench seat. I was wondering if it's possible to have three front seat belts? I already have the two three point inertia belts but was hoping to get a third lap belt for the middle seat. I can't seem to find any extra mounts or do I just double...

    Bumper irons

    I was pleasantly surprised to find heritage now do rear bumper irons, I'm sure they were like hens teeth when I was after some a few years back. Just wondered what the correct colour for them is? Thanks
