    I'm currently making up some jackets for the heating ducting under the van so we can get some vague form of heat to the cab (the main tube is currently disconnected).
    I've made a jacket for the main tube and have the old front jacket to use as a template. However I think I must've binned the old jacket that wraps around the y piece (that or it's stuffed so far back in the garage that I can't see it).
    Does anyone have a picture of theirs, perhaps with some rough dimensions so I can make one up?
     
  2. Got one at home I can measure up, but it'll be a couple of days. From memory, worth making it a big bigger, as they're quite tight on the studs.

    I was going to give it to @Barry Haynes to wear while he's out clubbing in Brighton.

    Cheers mate. I've some Orla Kiely left over so can make him a special "y piece" for his midnight shenanigans.

    Thank you @arryhancock for sending me the dimensions of this bit.

    I’ve made up the ‘batman’ jacket now so have all the bits ready to join the pipe work together.

  7. Did you do one for the diverter under the cab floor?

  8. Panel vans don’t have the diverter at the front

    Will PM you what he sent me. I made it a little wider so it’s easier to fit.
