Fantastic motor Jock, so many seem to have come out of Scotland (including mine)! My sister and niece now live in Perth, maybe I will get over one day... What did you use to make your roof mounted accessory/radio pod, I am thinking of making one very similar for mine to mount a radio, light and overhead locker to keep essentials in.

Hi Dan,
Not much to it, three pieces of ply covered with vinyl, with hinged flapat the rearto access the fuses. Not much room for a cubby hole as the wiring for the C.B. and radio are all crammed in. Still to fix a small screen T.V. to the rear base facing backwards, but still to find a type of hinge so it flaps up flush when in travel. Overhead console is a good idea as it takes the electrics away from the 2A dash... Best of luck Jock ...

G"day Jerryd,
You can just see the rod rack, a beach rod and a flick for casting from the south mole Fremantle on a Saturday night, Just reverse up to the end, put the kettle on and cast a line, and watch the sun go down over the Indian ocean :wink: A Merry Christmas and Guid New Year to all... Jock...

Hi Jock,
I've fitted a 10" tv/dvd player to the end of the wardrobe, we tried various positions before fitting it but all agreed this was the best place for it. We can now watch movies sitting round the table :woohoo:

But as you have no wardrobe, maybe your roof console option would be best.

Merry Xmas to you to :cheers:

I particularly liked the canvas 'roll' on the back door. Holds all his plates, bowls, mugs, cutlery etc. in one easy to get to place :tiphat:
