    Where could I get one of these from?

    Ensure you bolt the clips to the bus roof, rather than rivet them (as a well known NE garage did to mine!). Best way to avoid opening at 50mph 😖😂

    Front windscreen replacement?

    Bought a heated windscreen (collection only) from Ricky Evans MotorSport near Tamworth https://www.heatedwindscreen.com/products/vw-t2-combi-van-clear-heated-windscreen Just to confirm the heating elements are not visible in daylight, and fairly certain they're not at night either.

    Front speaker cable wiring route

    Morning everyone. I'm fitting a 6x9 speaker into the not quite rectangular space at the bottom of each door. How do people run the speaker cables through the front inner lip of the doors and through the front door posts into the cab area, so the wires don't get mashed each time the doors are...

    Rock and roll bed 1200 width

    I've gone down the same path - Rusty's full width and seatbelt risers. Wish I'd known you did them @davidoft as I got a LH early bay one off eBay and a RH late bay from Heritage(?). Not fitted yet, but hope the RH one fits. But at least I know where I can get them from if necessary!

    Your interiors.

    I'm at the 'what interior should I have?" stage. Out of the 100s of Pinterest etc etc suggestions that have left me cold, uninspired, into panic mode, I'm finally seeing some ideas I actually like. Not posted much about my bus resto, but will do.

    Best quality heat exchangers

    I've been thinking the same thing. Is it standalone or similar to an Erbespatcher but a lot cheaper? Where do you keep your diesel supply?

    Best quality heat exchangers

    I wonder if Cerscote vapour blasting would be a more durable solution. I used SMS Race Coatings based in North East England for my engine block which is being built by LVH Resto's. More info at https://smsracecoatings.com/

    Headlight dimmer switch not working

    Whilst replacing the loom in my 1970 bus, I also replaced the main/dipped/indicator stalk, and found the main/dipped connector on the stalk switch assembly wasn't actually connecting, and needed slightly bending - not great for a supposedly new item. Maybe worth checking after the other...
