    Headlamp question

    My initial guess would be to cover a bad paint job or damage. Although I prefer the fact that you are still a 70s glam rockfan or a Rocky Horror super fan.

    Prices, has the bubble burst

    I can see a glut of vans next year when travel restrictions are removed and people can go abroad.

    Headlamp question

    Not even a clue?

    Headlamp question

    To be honest I never really run the van in the dark but I worked on the premise that the 3 leg shades were designed for the old fashioned bulbs. The new bulbs as you state have black tips which I assume remove the need for the bulbs.

    Prices, has the bubble burst

    I was on EBay and decided to check on the prices busses are currently fetching. I see busses priced low are selling, whereas higher price ones have no bids. Now I know you get what you pay for and buying cheap can be a false economy as you plough more and more money in to bring the vehicle up to...

    Ignition barrel removal

    I’ve looked through old threads and some good stuff but very confusing. Yesterday in Tesco car park my key snapped in the ignition barrel. For the first time I couldn’t sort it myself and had to call the free recovery from my insurance company. To get me going he hot wired the van which got home...
