Forget zip ties , use electrical tape to fix a beer can half full of gravel to the exhaust pipe , put three cans on and vary the amount of tape you use .Quote:

Got all extra things wired up and all works just need to test winch when it's in. Except the bloody stereo- gave that a test and didn't work, one of the pins has broken in the plug grrr need a new one of them and pull it apart again. . .

Just took the old bus for a little drive, wow the bodys tight feels awsome. A few more loose ends to finish but it's going. Massive thanks to Matty & Markie for lending a hand last night most of the electrical stuff is sorted and the old bar is on for now but had to adjust for the change in body lift which Markie did an awesome job with. Was good to have a few hands the bar & winch weighs a ton [emoji6]

Got the new seats in after a few drams! After not being able to pick them up initially the first time from Hallam, then they got sent to Adelaide, then finally decided to pick them up again during office hours finally got them. Loaded the big box in the car and one small box for the adapter (s), kinda looked at it then the bloke, then he said that's the adapter kit don't worry the other kits in the box. Had a funny feeling and sure enough when i got home only one kit - Arrrgh. Anyway after calling them the other week it only just arrived the other day.
They certainly look better than the old GQ seats but not too sure how much I like them yet. Need to go for a big drive to find out [emoji4] . . .

Any requirements, insurance or Vicroads-wise for alteration of the seats at all, or are the commercial adapter kits all that is needed?
Yeah the kits are ADR approved so all good. Not much too them tho I'm sure you could come up with something just as good yourself quite easily.

Yeah they've looked after me real well, usually deal with shorty, they're all good but know shorty pretty well. . . Sometimes have to hide behind the tyres till the right person is ready to serve then pop out from behind [emoji6]Quote:

Nah this is the new improved model with the variable Flux capacitor. . . Hmm don't think I'm falling for that one lol . . . Although on the housing it says BorgWarne , it's missing the r on the end, yours like that, maybe mines a dodgy chinese rip off [emoji6] . . .
