Wow!, that's Interesting, ours rarely gets used at the moment due to being busy with other things, and also the cost of fuel, but I'll have to give her a run out once a week now.

That's exactly what ours does Rojie, and it is quite easy to re-attach when returning, just have to line up carefully.

That's Interesting Rojie, if I understand you correctly, are you referring to the rear door as the 'hatch'?, as our awning can only be used when attached to the vehicle with the door in the 'up/open' position, it's an Outdoor Revolution, Caymen model.

Don't know if by 'tent' you mean awning, but yes, there's plenty on the market, ours is an 'outdoor revolution' driveway and fits our 2003 van perfectly well.

I got mine from paintnuts, they were a very good match for our silver van.

Main dealers will generally be a lot more expensive than a small independent, that much we all know, my advice would be to do a bit of research and find a reputable trustworthy garage and stick with them.

Interesting, as that's how ours operates, the leisure battery is on constant charge via the solar, which in turn charges the main battery, which we never switch off, obviously you must have a slightly different system to ours. Good luck with solving the conundrum.

So just to be clear, you have a leisure battery and solar?, I have the exact same, doesn't your leisure battery excess power your main battery?.

Please let the forum know how you resolve the issue Hillclimber.

What would the good folk in this club do without Picasso?.

Definitely check out conversion companies, North Star told us they throw them out by the skipload.

My first thought would be Jap Auto parts.

Glad they were of use.

Haven't seen any updates on the meet up for this year, unfortunately we were unable to attend this one so just wondering how it went.

That's very useful info guys, handy to know.
