Re: Anyone know what this is??

I did notice that the scavenger fan didn’t come on after a 70 mile drive this week so not sure if it could be connected to this somehow.

It does go by the handbrake but then under driver seat

Anyone know what this is??

... seem to have any negative effect on the van. Following the cable out of the 'component' and the other end it goes to a metal rod under the driver seat but again this isn't connected to anything.

Re: Northstar Conversions Middle Swivel Seat

My advice to anyone about the swivel rear seat is if you don't need a forward facing seat for child seats etc just keep the original seat permanently reversed. The seat is good if you need to have if forward facing when moving but the downsides ...

Hot Nights..

Dismantle Rear Bench

Hi, I've taken the rear bench out of my Bongo to make way for a rear kitchen and seating. Is there a way to dismantle the bench? I want to store it in my loft but it's too big to get through the loft hatch. Is there a way to remove the back of the bench from the ...

Connecting diesel heater into OEM rear heater

Hi all, I've got an unconverted bongo (rear heater works just fine at the minute), I'm about to install a diesel heater (under passenger seat as usual). However, I'm a little reluctant to mount the outlet in the step area as I think it'll take a good kicking from my haphazard children as they ...

Re: Seat runners
