    Cheers @mikedjames, they look good.
    Presumably as they're 12 volt you don't need the adaptor?
    I've never wired anything, is it (really) easy?
     
  11. Levelling ramps. A must for those afflicted with a gammy back. Also gives the added fun of argueing over which one of you is the most cockeyed.

  13. Berg shifter. 123 dissy. What else do you need?
     
  14. My van came with ramps. I keep thinking I should pop in poundland, or better still, the 99p shop and buy a couple of cheap spirit levels.

    That would be a bit anal :)
     
  16. My little AC tire pump has come in handy far more often than I expected.
    Like on the beach, I can flatten my tires for better traction, then up they go again when we're back on terra firma.
    Another handy thing is a few of those emergency blankets. You know, the mylar ones that cost a dollar and fold up small enough to fit in a wallet?
    Well if you buy about 20 cheap little utility magnets at the hardware you can use them to secure the mylar over the windows instead of buying costly bulky thermal covers.
    The magnets are also good for securing side tents more securely to keep bugs out at night.
    The whole kit only costs about £5 and fits in a sandwich bag that sticks to the underside of my sink, entirely out of the way.
    Although I imagine it's better at blocking the burning Texas sun than it would be at staving of a damp British chill. :thinking:

  17. What exactly? "Popping in Poundland"?
    Does sound rather like a gay bar, doesn't it. :thinking:

  19. Yes, I was afraid the humor might be lost on your side of the pond. Sorry.

  20. I use two of those foil blankets as curtains for the Viking roof. Got them when I ran the Great Bentley Half Marathon.
