Yeah will do  the rewire is just a simple rewire and the fitting of led lights electric brakes just waiting on my son to get a new welder so he can do the mounting plates for me after that will probably be installing 12  volt power and some led strip lights this site has  given me some good ideas to bring the camper up to date

Lights, thats one thing I must do, Replace all with LED's.
And of cause a few other bits. The main one is to replace the whole kitchen for Fysh, bring it up to date with a four burner top and replace the lovely 80's green tops. LOL
cheers.

G`day Guys just thought id reintroduce ourselves thanks to the back trouble ive been laid up for a while but hopefully on top of it now still have the heavysew and finally got to take it out for the first time since this introduction last weekend all went well but thinking of getting one of the new easy set up tents for the camper as my backs still not the best and the tent top is a great setup but without the struts to help lift it makes it a bit of a struggle for me heading off to aussie jays this weekend to look at their quick set up tent as it looks good on the web site what do you guys think about aussie jays ive read some good stuff about them here on the forum
