Chopped the mesh out of the bottom half of the cargo barrier so I could use the wasted space between the cargo barrier and the back of the drawers.
Also fitted some LED lights to the small barn door.

Installed new UHF aerial, after some p@!:k decided it was more useful to them than it was to me last weekend!
Even had to unscrew a grub screw to take it!
Ran cabling for the reversing camera and extra reversing lights...

Just upgraded the interior LED lights to these large babies, will see what theyre like tonight . I also realized they fit perfectly in the reading lights up front, so I ordered another set.

Just finished mounting the sidesteps/running boards donated to me by GU CAMPER who has replaced them on his truck with some proper rocksliders. Wish I'd done the driver side first, that way I would have known how they were supposed to sit, but I didn't, I did the passenger side first. This was the side where GU CAMPER had used them as rocksliders. Much cursing & a bit of gentle persuasion with an angle grinder, a set of files, a couple of hacksaw blades & a 3lb lump hammer finally saw it mounted. Drivers side went on no trouble. It was only then I realised that the passenger side was bent up a couple of inches & a bit rearwards too. I reckon he was having fun when he did that! Still they are on, & look alright, & more importantly (& the reason for fitting them) will now protect the sills from the gravel attack they have been susceptible to.
Thanks Andy.

Mounted the radio antennae and ran the cable to the inside of the cabin, just need to remember to seal the firewall up now to stop the water getting in.

Drove it then heard it go bang a few times from the driver side front hub/cv.... Hmmmm....
Hubs in 2wd or 4wd: 5 "bangs" in 20 mins.
Hubs out, 2wd no bang but an occasional slight squeak.....
Any ideas?
