thanks guys haha i need to recover from this before i contemplate another. :D and thanks,

thanks, yeah i like the look of the solid panels but a bit of a nightmare trying to see out, certainly takes some getting used to. got the sun visors fitted, then started off with my attempt at soundproofing, worked ok on my mini but this noise is on a whole different level...

:bump: been using the landy to get to work for the last two days, spent a couple of hours today trying to iron out a few "small" issues. the first of which was the rattling load bed floor, would seem i needed to rivet down the floor all the way across the supports so after some measuring and a...
