    Xmas Pressie

    Fitted my Xmas pressie the other day. A set of gullwing doors and side box from Dolium. Gullwings were a piece of cake, the box was a bit more of a drame.

    G'day Craig,

    Nice job, very impressive. The black fits in well with your vehicle.
    Can you do a photo from the rear door.

    Yeah Vlad that is it. Over again I may consider making aluminium and mesh shelves the full length from the cargo barrier to the back for better utilization of space. But the box is good and will come in handy. Now just to get some tie down points inside it to secure everything.
    All good and from Dolium (as no ARB or similar up here), very fast delivery.
    The newer type of gullwing means the whole window and frame is removed and a new frame put in place. From what I know the older type meant the windows had to be smashed to remove or the frame removed and split, windows removed,farme reassembled and used to mount the gullwing. This version is so much easier.
    Now just have to work out where I put my speaker that I had to remove to fit the box.

    Jake,

    Have not tried to see if it flys yet.

    Hi Craig,
    I really like the gullwings. Have you found a difference with visibility (partic the passenger side one) and interior light since fitting them? I love how the 110s are bright and airy inside.

    Definately darker in the back, but I think that is a good thing. Certainly makes the rear interior light more usefull. No real issues with visibility for me as the cargo barrier etc hinder the view through the side windows anyway.
