  1. Thanks Lee, that's very helpful. Kind regards Graham
  2. Thanks for that Lee. I have heard of that. Calders Campers have already done this process before we bought the campervan from them. Can the process be done more than once? Cheers Graham
  3. Good afternoon, I am looking for replacement headlamp units due to an advisory on my MOT. my vehicle is 2006 and it's age decolourisation. Thanks for the info that you need to replace the whole unit. I'm reluctant to use ebay as the units advertised there may well be similarly discoloured. Have any of you used a reliable Toyota dealer in Scotland? Thanks and regards Graham
  4. Thanks to you both. Kind regards Graham
  5. I have minor damage to the nearside front valance which has been repaired but I need touch up paint. Where do I find the paint code on my 2006 Alphard please? Thanks Graham
  6. Hi, I wonder if it is worth buying a reader as an Alphard owner, just in case? How does one attach it to the vehicle? Sorry I'm displaying complete ignorance here but grateful for the advice.
  7. Many thanks to Lee and Paul. There is one other button that I will photograph later. Thanks again Regards Graham
  8. Thanks Rojie, I have spoken to Calders and they had never had such a request before! The only possible way to do this, according to their workshop, is to fabricate a frame to fix to the bed frame and then fix a conventional headrest to it. This would then need to be removed every time the bed was needed. The whole idea is on the backburner for now!
  9. Good morning, we have a 2006 Alphard converted by Calders Campers. This is a very new venture for us! We noticed that if an adult is sitting in the back seat on the rock and roll bed the headrest is not really that. Is there any slip on type that I can get to perform as a standard headrest similar to the front seats? Thanks Graham
  10. Thanks everyone for replying to this. I have tried 3 Timpsons branches now and none will do this. There is a local 'Locdoc' who is to get back to me and Calders (the campervan dealers) have said they use Cheap Car Keys Scotland for all their keys and I am waiting for a reply from them. I probably should have gone back to Calders first! Thanks again. Graham
  11. Thanks I've just ordered the manual from Amazon!
  12. Hi, we have just bought one from Calders. Really the only way we could afford a campervan having havered for years ! Are you still pleased with yours? The fit out is excellent as you say and we didn't have the issues you did at handover. Ours is a hard top deliberately so because of west coast Scotlands weather! Ours is only a week old to us so hopefully any niggles will be small. Cheers Graham
  13. Hmm, Timsons don't do imports generally. Toyota appear not to be able to, at least on the west coast of Scotland. Thanks to Pete anyway.
  14. Graham Revill, here. Thanks for that I have the same issue. Only one key. I understand Timsons at Braehead Paisley can do it.
  15. I am looking for a 'workshop manual' for my 2006 Alphard. Haynes don't appear to issue one. I don't expect to do much, if any, of my own maintenance but a manual would be useful to learn more about the vehicle. Questions like is it rear wheel drive? Does the engine share oil with the gearbox? Etc. Thanks and kind regards Graham
  16. Thanks, at last I have an answer! The salesperson was a little vague on this.
  17. Can anyone tell me the servicing intervals for a 2.4 litre petrol 2006 Alphard. I expect to do more than the usual mileage for a campervan. Probably 12k a year? Thanks Graham
