The DAB aerial is in the drivers door mirror so that won't have been touched at all.. The thing on the roof is the SOS system.Markymark59, sorry just saw your post.
Regarding the DAB aerial, I believe that the receiver is now located somewhere in the dashboard. Stereo reception does not seem to have suffered due to the relocation.
I had the roof up at the weekend for the first time proper. I did notice the wiring from the solar panel appeared to be running inside, right at the rear of the pop top so guess its all rooted through the inside of the van.
Hi mate, to be honest mine has not been up overnight in the rain yet. I’ve been lucky so far and anytime with camped out with the roof up we’ve had decent weather. If I know it’s likely to rain and we’d be leaving the next day we tend to sleep with the roof down for the odd night.Hi @gjt01 - Just come across this thread, and have seen your thread also @oldgoat. @gjt01 , I was wondering if you've used yours in the rain yet, and seen any water pooling problems like oldgoat, or frame bowing down.
I am currently weighing up options between the Horizon and the Skyline Skylo, but still unsure.
Ah, ok, fair enough. Guessing you haven't noticed any issues with rain/water collecting/pooling and coming through even when the roof is down? I think if there were issues with water pooling in the gutters with the roof down, water not running off through the outlets, you'd notice and see damp patches on the canvas when you put it up.Hi mate, to be honest mine has not been up overnight in the rain yet.

Fingers crossed if we do get caught out we don’t suffer the same issues!

I've noticed the locking tie downs go through holes in the roof, and when the roof is up those holes look like they're exposed to the weather. On the VA parts store they sell 'storm bungs', have you used these? Do you have to put these in every time the roof is up?
