So i spent friday night making templates of the side marker lights for the front wings and the port holes so we could crack on this morning with the saw. So side marker lights first, to get to the wiring i stripped the grille and headlight bezels off. And set to with the air disc cutter, no second chances here! Measure twice cut once... I then filled it and gave the bare edges a coating of hammerite to look after the bare steel. Side marker wires were paggered so we had to re solder them. Kaboom. Practice over now for portholes, It was a nervous moment, drew round the template i made, and set to, sweating like Gary Glitter in a playground!! Luckily all went well. We pulled the side walls inside down and cut the steel then drew through the holes and cut the wood paneling.

So, no van should be without a TV and power, invertor fitted, TV /DVD player fitted... Battery and electrics secured in box below tv all hidden away. So me and Big D made a brew and sat and watched Boogie Nights! Yeah baby! Roll on Billing. Bit more to do this week, throw a tow bar at it and kaboom load it up - job done (for now!)
