  1. Hello Bernie, Welcome to the Forum
  2. Hello Gavriel, Welcome to the Forum
  3. Hello Nicki, Welcome to the Forum. Are we talking inner button or outside lever ? Do the buttons on the dash work OK ? There are a couple of camper suppliers in Newquay. Are you anywhere near them. There is also Dyernostics (sic) in Bodmin who is Toyota trained. Good Luck.
  4. I think 60 A is OK, but it is essential for all Alphie owners to ensure their batteries remain fully charged for the colder nights and winter journies. All that current load on short journies can ask too much of the alternator. I maintain a spare battery on charge at home, just in case, and carry jumper leads for when not a home.
  5. Should be OK, but my research has the offset at 45.
  6. Click on Picasso's circular P emblem (above), and then select Message from the top of his home page.
  7. Hello Judy, Welcome to the Forum.
  8. These do not look like OEM Alphard wheels. Be sure to check the size AND the offset and PCD.
  9. These do not look like standard Alphard wheels. Be sure to check size AND offset, plus PCD. Hello Simon, Welcome to the Forum
  10. Autoglass will do it all for you, assuming your Insurer is paying, otherwise you may need to remortgage your house. I paid £75 excess. Autoglass also quoted close to £1800 for a private fitting. Picasso bought a screen for abour £450, I believe, and had it fitted privately. A crack is not an automatic MOT fail, but, believe me, the crack will lengthen until it does fail. Get it replaced asap.
  11. Please change your vehicle type in your profile; oherwise you will receive help that is totally irrelevant.
  12. What colour ? Could be traction control.
  13. Very interesting. I wonder what the shipping cost will be.
  14. If you have a Hybrid, please change your vehicle type in your profile.
  15. This depends on where the Toyota engine was made. Japanese made engines should not be an issue. American made engines ?
  16. Contact the seller Asl about a hidden switch.
  17. DRL should be wired through the ignition switch; but usually run whenever the igntion is on. Are you suggesting yours do not switch off when the ignition is off ?
  18. Can I suggest a cheap and simple method ? Get a laptop and feed it an HDMI signal. You will need a digital TV signal though.
  19. What size are your wheel tyre combiantions ? There are websites which will compute dimensional changes for all options you may be able to consider. Will It Fit is one that comes to mind. Has you van been lowered or heightened ?
  20. Camper conversion does not make any difference to road tax, insurance may be more tricky though. Road tax is about £330 from memory. Rather than worrying about road tax, ensure you have somewhere to get your vehicle serviced. Do not assume Toyota dealers will. Check before you buy. You may also have ULEZ issues with an 04 plate. Check the registration with TfL (Transport for London) and check on any ULEZ requirements in any local cities near you.
  21. Do you have space under the passenger seat ? Plenty of room brhind the third row of seats, just need to make sure it is truly secure to the floor. Leisure batteries are not normally of the wet type.
  22. A leisure battery will achieve this. You will need a spilt charging relay unit to keep both batteries charged. Leisure batteries are common in camper conversions.
  23. Hello Mark, Welcome to the Forum
