    Hi, I'm wondering if anyone can help me. We just bought a camper with a RIB bed. There are no belts connected and on close inspection it looks like they may have been removed at some point. Under the seat, on the frame we have a double anchor point at the back and then another one on each...

    Has anyone got the evomotion 1300 pod fitted with a rib 130 they could share pics of? I can’t decide between that and full length low furniture. Plus the cost is cheaper for the pod! https://www.evomotiondesign.co.uk/product/1300-kitchen-pod-flat-pack/ Thanks

    Seatbelts sticking with our Rib bed

    I have had a 112 rib bed fitted in my van and the seats retrimmed but I’m having issues with the seatbelts. They don’t re-coil as they should and I’ve got no confidence that they will work in a crash. If I angle the back section down they work better (still not perfectly) but this means that...

    Builder messed up my RIB install.... thoughts please

    So I gave my VW to 'professionals' to fit a kitchen and my RIB using the correct Kiravans fitting kit. The kitchen they fitted didn't work with a rib and they ended up fitting the rib in the wrong place. Because of this have drilled holes in the wrong place in chassis frame and actual fitting...
