    Rear headlining bow?

    Hi all... Has anyone got any pictures of how/where the rear headliner bow attaches to? (The one nearest the rear hatch/hinges). I believe the bow/rod here is a shorter straight rod, not a bowed/bent rod like the others... is that correct?... If yes... does anyone know the length? Thanks 👍🏻

    Voltage-drop with Headlights on? (Generator/Regulator).

    Hi All, Took my Bus to a local meet last night... and it's the first time (in a long time) that I have driven it in the dark. I have a voltmeter installed up-front and the needle normally sits roughly around the 14V area when daytime driving (at off-idle revs). However, I noticed last night...

    Always fancied some fresh air in the back of my bus - so had my eyes peeled for a good second hand sliding window as I have always like this style. Just so happens that at the Volksworld show I found myself a matching pair for the opposing sides... so treated myself!: There in pretty good...
