Gullwing doors for easy access to the back:




will make some shelves that fit between the top of the window & roof to carry large & bulky items like pillows, blankets, etc.

Yeah I like those gullwing windows. Stops people form breaking in with grass or fencing wire too.

thought people would like this info.

Here's a product that should be in everyones box of things to take on an expedition

LIFESAVER bottle Australia

It's a flask. Any old water (not seawater) goes in one end, clean, safe drinking water comes out the other end.

We've got one - it works, and it works well.

I have been wanting to get some "gull wing doors" for a while...My windows have been broken recently and I lost a heap of camping gear. These look a lot more secure. Who would you contact to get a set made up and fitted?
