What Have You Done To Your Van Today?

Removed the three screws on the front cover of the Fiamma awning. They are legendary for seizing. Two were okay, but the top left resisted strongly. Cleaned the threads and coated them in aluminum anti-sieze before putting them back in. Pre-emptive maintenance that could be worth it for all Fiamma owners.

Did this myself, heard the stories re: seizing
 
Cleaned the bejesus out of it, waxed it, opened the pop top and cleaned and waxednthe normally hidden parts, wiped the pop top struts with an oily rag, reproofed the pop top.

It's going in Tuesday to have Eibach rear levelling springs fitted so chucked the box in the back in readiness.
 
Changed my knackered THQ Number Plate LED’s after about 6 months :confused::

Also fitted new plates & plate holder on the rear:

I’ve got a Van X Front Spoiler which has a moulded recess for the front plate & I wasn’t able to make the plate holder fit in a way that I was happy with. So if anyone wants the other one, feel free to drop me a DM.

**Edit: Plate Holder has now gone**
