    Repco/autobarn/supercheap keep it in stock. I've never used it but haven't had snow at my camp before either.

    Now I know your from here I will say hi next time. If you were there at 5.30 then it most likely wasn't you guys we seen.
    There were around 5 camp sites we passed.
    We pushed pretty hard as one of the guys with us only could see out of one eye, crazy for even going.
    We didn't want to get stuck in the dark.
    We only had to snatch 2 out of the side of the steps.
    I got the additive from Transtyle autos Hallam when I had my auto serviced, $15 for 970mm.
    Joe there knows his stuff.
    It can be purchased anywhere and brand I used was Lucas.
    You can't put too much in as the instructions says.


    QUOTE=Bacho86;682745]You should have come and said gday!

    We were actually very lucky to find that spot, only pulled in at 5:30pm. The original plan was to camp around wonangatta, but due to a combination of track condition and experience of drivers we spent a lot of time winching and undertaking recoveries on Butcher Country link track.

    Yeh we saw the hunters under the tarp on Sunday morning, had to give the White 4.2L GU a jump start as both his batteries had gone flat!

    Will definitely be packing the additive next time for sure, where'd you buy it from?

    Not queens birthday, but I just got pulled over before and nearly got shafted for the bonnet scoop.
    He had a quick look around the car, took note of tyre size and asked me whether my spare wheel light kicks in when I'm reversing. It does, but there was a switch that just happened to be in the off position he couldn't see. So dodged that bullet. lol

    Then when I thought he was supposedly happy with everything, his off-sider began looking at and questioning the scoop.
    Sat in the drivers seat and according to him he couldn't see the top of my bullbar/bonnet even though he was nearly 6".

    I just happened to have the engineering certificate from cross country in the back of my car printed out and I'm certain that sort of made him back off. Even though it states nothing about vision obstruction, I think he realized this was from a reputable company and not some backyard job.
    Otherwise he was booking me for it 100% ! I asked he what the regs were but hes answer was he was simply not happy with it as it obstructs my vision as a driver.

    Talking about it with Mudski before and he scoured the ADR's and the scoop is 100% in the clear! Gonna print them out as well and keep in the car.

    I do mate. It came on a DVD that cross country threw in the pack which has various documents and stuff including that one.

    Yeah I got away this time. Mark sent me some pics of ADR rules regarding this and the scoop is 100% in the clear.
    Also mentions being able to see the ground 11m in front of the car which passes with ease, so gonna get that printed and kept in the car too, in case I run into this cop again. Or another one whos interested in the scoop.
