    Damn, so sorry honey

    I have stripped out the shower which isn't so bad as it needed doing. Will be cutting through a board this week which should give me good access to the damage. I am surprised that the base of the ladder only had pop rivets. I will post a picture from the inside when I've created the access hole...

    windscreen reflective sunshade

    Before I give it any proper consideration; If parked for a few days do you think a reflective windscreen sunshade positioned around a pv panel would aid morning/evening sun harvesting to a level that it is worth the faff?

    What about this as a base vehicle ?

    RAW, Just re read the thread and had a ponder........I suggest if you are not a true (translate to dedicated) fan of LR steer clear.

    Forum a bit quiet

    I think the forum would definitely liven up with a name change as 'motorhome' to a lot of people including myself is an 'off the production line' vehicle that doesn't need building...........but if it did change to something like 'camper builder' from looking at other sites you attract people...

    ....and the floodgates will open but am still at the 'thinking' stage. I am visiting Wildebus soon which will give me an idea of what weight and space I should have left post solar install and I can start my smaller projects. One of the attributes of this forum is when a serious question is...

    Manual drill question

    I was shocked the first time I used the ones pictured, to say they are very good is an understatement. I cant comment on longevity yet. Maybe just pick up one in the mm you use most frequently :unsure:
