Only thing left to do is to put that carpet stuff on them to make them look like the real ones.
If anyone wants to see the rest go to the tech forum there is a link to them.

Good stuff redback, it looks great, and i bet it cost a fair bit less than $700 for the ARB version. The onlything they have that yours doesnt is a fridge slide, but you could whack one onto buy screwing some 2x1 on its side and fixing runners to those.
How much does it all weigh? and roughly how much were all the materials? Matt

About 30kg and maybe $150 all up it will be a bit more when i buy the stuff to cover it and make it look professional, i have some draw runners to make a slide but seeing as i don't have a fridge won't need a slide.
It is for our recovery gear and tyre repair, first aid stuff and tools.

Thats pretty good. Its on my to do list. But not really necessary for a while yet, dont travel enough. Suspension, snorkel, winch and sliders are first, then all the interior stuff last. Matt

Well it's sitting around unregistered so i thought might as well do something with it so this is one of two things we did over the weekend.
We wired up the the Arrid twin charger too for charging the battery in the camper, i also looked at where i could put the heat exchanger and second battery for the winch, not alot of room but i think i've worked something out.

The twin battery thing can be done. ARB does a kit. I am not sure where they put the seond battery though. Matt

Ok, i have dug up my ARB price catalogue. Discovery mid 99 on- Dual Battery System- $527.00+$140(installation)=$667.
Installation is a base price only, this can differ between stockists. The overall price might seem high, it does to me, but at least you know it is done properly. Matt

It does seem high but piece of mind knowing it's been done properly makes it worth it, the only thing i will have to change is that the battery they supply is lead acid and it needs to be lead calcium in the SII so i have found out and needs to have a sheild for heat from the turbo.
Thanks for that Matt saves me searching i'll shout you a beer saturday style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/biggrin.gif
