Unfortunately I was in bed in chesterfield (220 miles away),where I am working and the van was outside my house in Poole, otherwise I am sure the cameras would have developed a fault and the insurance would not be involved!

That’s really good!
Finally, a solution to leaky OEM sliding windows!
Flog them to VW to fix a “known issue”!!!
Good work, I’ll be copying that. I’ve been mulling over something similar to cover the nearside from the B pillar back so I can have the sliding door open in the rain, using rubber coated magnets for securing.
Really not keen on awnings at all as I don’t want to attract attention when parked up.
An update to the above thread.... today everything on my MFSW is now working, thanks to Chris @Dav-TecAnybody looking to upgrade their current steering wheel should check out customise_steering_wheel on Instagram. David and his son Patrick take genuine VW wheels and custom make them up to your requirements.
As I was upgrading from the standard plastic Startline/Trendline to a MFSW, David supplied the correct wheel with the correct buttons (no cruise control on the wheel) and also the wiring loom to make life easy.
I chose a flat bottom wheel with muscles, black stitching, leather top and bottom with perforated leather on the sides and the surround around the airbag I chose matte black instead of the normal Highline gloss black.
I just need to get it coded now so that all the buttons work, but really pleased with how it looks and feels.... spot on!

Chris is a proper sound bloke.... an electrical and mechanical wizard, as well as a VW nut! His ‘work van’ is a very special modified VW Caddy!
He fitted the extra wires required for a MFSW (if your van didn’t come from the factory with a MFSW), then coded everything with VCDS to work correctly.
Chris is also an approved Autowatch Ghost Immobiliser installer.... and this is something I’ve got pencilled in with him for sometime very soon!

Glad you're happy mate. See you in a few weeks
Is that a Brodit phone mount? Any good?
That’s got to be around the time i bought mine and they’re still in the box!!
Fitted a new rear spoiler from Vee Dubs, came already painted, fits nice
Looking good, I’ve bought the van x speaker grill too, looking for a centre speaker myself, did you manage to fit it in without cutting into dash , also how is your centre speaker wired?, I have a pioneer s set up
Cheers
Jason
Yes, always. Not the most subtle of mounts but have had one in every car, for every phone. Had to modify this one to use the lighter socket right underneath (90 degree bend)
Did you put led lamps in your H7 ‘SNo comments on the 70s bedspread
Doesn’t look a lot different TBH. After dark will be a different matter !
