Hi All
I would like to have a leisure battery installed in my van. Does anyone know anywhere in Essex or Suffolk?
Regards
Inch

Do you already have any sort of conversion in the van ?
Is there a battery tray already in place under the bonnet on the nearside ?
Otherwise a battery tray from New Dawn conversions https://www.newdawnconversions.co.uk/pr ... ttery-tray
A battery to fit on the tray and under the bonnet height (Check dimensions), normally around 100 AmpHour capacity https://www.tayna.co.uk/
A split charge kit and Swap loom for the existing circuits from BAES on eBay https://www.ebay.co.uk/usr/bespokeautoe ... ervices_uk
Might be worth looking up Automotive electrical engineers in your area with the above as a list of items.

Goodness, VW owners must be richer than us. :shock:

You won't go wrong with the suppliers Geoff has recommended. 8)
