19.5 inch overhead screen - Overhead | Xtrons

We specialize in aftermarket in-car entertainment products including Car DVD players such as In dash DVD, Flip Down DVD and Headrest DVD, plus Auto GPS

xtrons.co.uk

Been looking for a screen and plumped for this - if you go to the manufacturers site and use code VIP15 you get 15% off

I've looked around and that became the cheapest price around - about £30 cheaper than Amazon

One of these, fed up with not being able to see a decent view on the camera.

Just ordered the correct battery cover for the van, must have had a brain freeze when I ordered the travelling lite one!!!!

Certainly took me a long while to press the buy button. Present from me to me for my promotion @JOG

Bought and working through the possibilities of a camping bunk in the rear. I saw a bunk setup for front captains seats, but it doesn't work for twin seats. We can use the twin seat for our bed extension and have space for this setup. It's a Kampa Bunkie which was down to £85 delivered. We're going to shorten it by 300mm.

And can fit a really useful box under it, so can stay up before/after trips.

Edit: Warning! It has the worst instructions of anything I have ever self-assembled. It's a complete pig to put together in spite of its simplicity

Headrest mounted TV bracket.....was going to go for a flip down tv, but for the amount of use it will get it seemed like too much money so got this instead

Pardon our interruption...

Memory foam mattress topper, just need to get some use out of it now......

Out of interest where did you get your mattress topper and what sort of price was it?

I think this is the best splitter for the T6, I loved it on mine and I'm not normally a splitter kind....even though I've not got round to removing the one on my 6.1

Hello - can I just ask - did you use self tap screws ? Or captive nuts and bolts ? Strangely I got both supplied with mine and haven’t fitted yet. Thanks.

Nice one - I really like the look of it and while I probably struggle to justify the cost, at the same time you can't take it with you and the kids can learn to be self sufficient, so it's a win win win
