What Martin has said Rob. The top supports are above/under (not through) the rear trim for the Autosafe.Quote:

Played a game with Graham Kennedy and Ugly Dave Gray today (Blankety Blanks for the uninitiated :p).
A couple of operator induced errors but all worked out OK in the end.
The culprits showed off their usual appearance.

Engaged RAG Constructions last weekend and they finished the job this morning. Fridge slide for the trip in October. Went minimalist with a piece of 18mm formply bolted to the tiedown bolt locations. Does fit with the cargo barrier in place.
Also arranged for the spare tyre winch bolt extension - however this will only be in an emergency as the second spare will be located on the soon to arrive roof rack.

Well get set for a good laugh as after more than 12 months I finally have installed the reversing camera I bought. It was on special at $99 (down from $199) when I bought it although it now retails for $160.
SCA 4.3" Wireless Reversing Camera - Supercheap Auto
Like my previous post - RAG Constructions at their best!
The camera I ended up mounting immediately above the Mitch Hitch and ran the cable under the plastic cover on the rear step (there's a narrow section that allowed it to get through without being pinched) inside. Once in through a cable opening it goes across the rear of the area under the rear seats, under the trim and into the left had read fuse/air con area. This is where the wireless transmitter for the camera sits. I then joined it into the wire on the reversing lights.
The screws will be replaced by bolts on Monday as I didn't want a 30km round trip :o to get some that would fit.

The screen is slightly wedged in and is powered off the cigarette lighter. I attached an 12V accessory socket to the cable to allow it to get power from the cig lighter.

The job for either tomorrow or next weekend is to trim the cable to length and place it behind the console out of the way. However, surprisingly, it actually works :arms: :arms: :arms:
It will be ssssooooooo good hitching up the camper trailer from now on. :banana: :banana: :banana:
All up barely more than $100 :D
This morning's effort was the Traxide kit installation. Running the cable across the rear of the vehicle meant I was able to tidy up the cabling for the reversing camera too. :)

Then this afternoon my kind neighbour Roversmith came and helped me lift the roof rack in place. :cool:

I bought the wheel bracket as well and will use this for wheel number 6 when we head to the West Macdonnell's via Adelaide in a fortnight.
I thought I had posted here but obviously I did not. Some time ago I updated the 2005-2006 instrument pack software to the 2007 version so that I have a clock in the middle of the cluster. It ceased working at one stage with no numbers but only - - : - - appearing.
It reappeared as a clock display when I put a new battery in the vehicle and then disappeared when the vehicle sat at the mechanics for a week waiting for a transfer case transplant in early December ([bawl]) and hasn't reappeared.
So last night I put a theory to the test and charged the battery. Once reconnected today - BINGO - I have a clock in the instrument cluster again.
Which leads me to believe that if you disconnect the battery, when you reconnect it, unless it is at a prescribed level of charge, your instrument cluster clock may not appear. I share this so that if anyone else has updated the instrument cluster software then be aware this as it may be why yours has disappeared.
