I guess I need to get a copy of rave and see if I can figure out if I could do that on my Td5...

Bit of talk around twin alternator set ups here .... http://forums.lr4x4.com/index.php?showtopic=44676

Here is one of Paul's ebay items : http://pages.ebay.com/link/?nav=item.view&alt=web&id=161462617409

PaulMc on here can supply a lot of the standard LR terminals and connectors. He has an ebay store too under something like LR Connectors - he's been super helpful to me.

I'm sure the cost will be frightening ..... But does anyone know the part numbers for the puma 90 window trims ? I'm fitting a fold down forward facing seat in my Td5 and the nearest way to do the seat belt would be to use the puma trims rather than cut my own.

Looking like a really nice space James Very satisfying I would think !

I'd imagine so too ! I'm not scared of height - just get vertigo.

I must admit I'm rubbish with heights and that bridge looks like it would pose a much greater problem to me than all the gnarly bits put together

I have one little girl and I don't seem to find time to be 1% as productive as you are ?

Spotter looks to be doing a good job.

Nice clip ! And a good line. He seems to drive as slowly as I do

Thanks for the big write up - and looking forward to the videos . I wondered about the cage - nearly all the youtube videos show vehicles without cages ...?

My thoughts too - or failing that get a GPX of the route and make it a holiday.

It was the other, more extreme, event they ran that got stopped ..... Can't remember the name of it though.

I've learned loads from this - thank you everyone ! Can I venture to ask what folk think of buying 2nd hand ? It seems to be what most people have done - but they don't seem to be a home serviceable item, so there is a level of risk I guess. Seeing things like this make you wonder : http://youtu.be/9YHPB8c1g0c

Could we do a forum foray ? A few of us sign up for the same year and perhaps travel together ?

Rather that than les urgences ....

I'd love to do it ! If you have any pictures or more tales to tell ... I'd love to hear them ....

Can I ask which remote you used ?

And that's why I thought the water heater suited my application better - I won't be sleeping in it and its the quicker warm up I wanted.It's perhaps for me to just understand the battery scenario better and see if that swings the balance. I don't know if any of the modern cars with one fitted have twin batteries ? Though in the main I presume they are employed as auxiliary heaters - used in conjunction with the engine running ? ...... Though I see remote fobs for sale for Audi's etc. So if I wasn't going to be using the blower without the engine running - just as a water pre-heat would a healthy single battery cope with that ?

I'm not sure I follow that in the context of what we are saying ?

Bent it over his knee I think . * * ref super-human skills

That's something I hadn't thought of ...

I'm pretty certain the cooling system is working to spec - certainly the last one was the same. Perhaps 25 mins is overstating it - but they have both been slow to heat up, and I've heard others say the same ? It also seems they get warm enough for the low fan speed sooner - but need to be quite hot before the full fan speed is useable.

Can I just canvas some opinions on diesel heaters. I'd like to improve the heat up time on my Td5 90. My journey to work is only 25 minutes - but that means that the heating has never really started to work before I'm getting out at the other end. I actually think that once the standard heater is up to temperature and working, its more than adequate. However - I was going to put an air heater in either the battery box or ECU box - the plan was that as I have no centre bulkhead I'd have the vent in the strip of floor panel that runs along where the centre bulkhead would be - as thats a central point. I's thought to have the air intake into the footwell - to draw out the coldest air. I guess I'd also need to think about how much heat comes off one with it then being in such close proximity to the ECU. But anyhow - I'm now thinking that perhaps the water heater is the better option if it gets the standard heater system to the point where it can blow warm air before the engine runs - do they do that ? The air heater seems like it would come into its own if I were to sleep in the car - which I won't be and if I wanted the car warm for a long period without running the engine. The water heater seems that if it eradicates the warm up period - and of course is kinder to the engine - that it may then be the better option for me. It's potentially an easier install too ? So I just wondered if anyone might share the pro's and cons as they see them ? Or pass an opinion on my reasoning ?
