Frenzy and BEP120, thanks guys. You're right there BEP120 it is a good idea to sit down and work out what you want but the beauty of doing it yourself is that you can change your plans as you go along or if you are like me you can just keep making and adding stuff to the system over a few years to suit whatever trip I have coming up.

Cheers

Mate the fan keeps me cool when I sleep on top of the box on a self inflating mattress. I just fold the door down flip the fan up and plug it in to one of the 12v points I have scattered around the patrol. The reason it folds down is that the door wouldn't close otherwise. It does a good job although a little bit like a giant mossie about to attack but once you get used to it the noise isn't an issue. I have another 2 12v computer fans joined together that have a couple of small brackets that I turned into hooks, and these hook onto the rear seat passenger grab rail. The power for these comes via a cig plug and the cable is long enough to reach a couple of different points around the cabin.

Do you have a fridge in the back as well?

Mate sorry I haven't replied to you, I didn't even see your post until now, my apologies. Yeah we do put the fridge (50L waeco) in the back, it goes on the left side. I built the box so we could pack to the roof with gear and stll be able to get to the fridge.

Thanks msw21. It looks ok from a bit of distance but when you look close you can see that there is 5 different shades of grey marine carpet. Each time I added to it I couldn't remember which carpet I used the last time and I thought that looks like it so I got it, then found that it didn't match.....Oh well....it still does the job though and thats all that counts.

Cheers
