  3. Who would be willing to setup an owners club. We could get meet's, and goodies i think for this.
  4. I've ordered a set from Ben Hau. Cost £125 and got the job done. Though it does not have the fixing attached as the rubber flexi ones do. But simple to hook it and ben the clips as needed. In the end i took it to the garage and they did it using a blowtorch to heat it up.
  5. Tried to change my lines over today however the old ones will not friggin undo. I managed to get one done to the Braided lines sent out by Ben however the others will not come off. Any tips to get these undone without having to new metal lines and re fur them.
  6. One thing to add. Brake hoses need to be replaced every 10 years or if they dry out. Recently i've noticed mine are getting air so decided to replace with braided lines. £125 for all 6 from Ben Hau.
  7. I don't know but my Estima i was changing the oil every 5 - 6 k. With this engine i would assume 5 - 6 k again depending on driving style. Personally oil will be changed every 6 months or 5k which ever comes first. Using Shell Helix is fine but there are cheaper oil's that do the same job.

  9. Not sure as we won't get ours converted due to the government not making its mind up on LPG. However there are a few members who have gaslow installed so go for it.
  10. Welcome, As said above. Plus make sure you get a 3L or above if having a camper. A lot of people have them as campers and there are a few converters which are preferred. We have not converted our van. (While the kids are young still) But things to look for. 1. Make sure it is undersealed 2. check for any rust spots on the inner wheel arches 3. if LPG converted check the certification and make sure it's had a service in the last year.
  11. would be better if the pound was stronger against the euro 😢
  12. Never used them. We are still at the point where it's the whole family and not just myself and my wife. But we have a company we look after who deal and sort out conversions to all vehicles to campers. So will be going with them when it's time. So please let us know what is good and what is not.
  13. make sure the year matches otherwise the size will not. Alot of people have changed the radio's. Might be worth doing a quick scan of post's and see which we recommend.
  14. Welcome Minkey, Might be worth pulling it out and checking the lead is in the back. Maybe post some photos online and we can help.
  15. On full lock we get click either left or right. Any ideas what this may be? someone said a while back might be the CV joint but i'm not 100%.
  16. Does anyone have a thought on reconditioning yellow headlights? I was told meguires is good but not sure found a Holt's kit for £20 at my local Car parts place.
  17. Check out the links we sent for part numbers used it for my cambelt, filers & water pump.
  18. WIth the camera its a case of soldering the wires as it comes clean or you can use (urgh!) scotch locks.
  19. Are you okay with a soldering iron? Normally they actually have the sockets on the back you can plug directly into. (most models, depends on who's selling it and the model) But we've used these from halfords before. ISO1 ISO2
  20. Have a look at this: Instruction Link Pumpkin Radio
  21. If you have someone who's done your conversion please post below.
  22. Some good radios out there personally i like pumpkin. But other say Xtrons.
  23. +1 for Ben, Supplied me some parts and most of the FB group parts and its really great.
  24. @Susan speak to @Ben alphard he will give you all the prices and parts needed.
