    Heat exchanger fitted to engine and pipes routed to side for shower. Butterfly valve fitted so cold water can by-pass heater, allowing temp adjustment at shower (not via the heater controls in the Cab)

    After success with making the rear sliding drawers, I decided to make my own over- head console to house the UHF and some storage. Incorporated volt gauges, circuit breakers, map lights, speaker , extra 12V outlets and a compass from an Aircraft my wife and I both flew. (Finally thought to take some photos during construction)

    Fitted. The volt gauges (start and house battery) can be turned off to save battery when no in use by the little toggle switch on the drivers side. The circuit breakers allow me to isolate any 12v system in the cabin (Shorts, fire ect)
