          Thanks for the pictures Mick!! Appreciate it. It doesn't come out as far as I thought - looks good, so does all the other mods

          Did you get any rough eta when the rear light mount might be available?

            I'm not sure if sponsor is the right word. :-D The TraxRax is by Craigm though (refer to 1st post).

                Apologies craigm, 1st post rectified. The TraxRax work a treat. I'll let you know how they handle the corrugations of the Anne Beadell, the Great Central and Sandy Blight Junction Road when we get back.

                  Had the half cargo barrier, rear drawer and fridge slide setup installed on Tuesday by Fourby Fitouts in Hallam and have a busy weekend of installs planned before driving out on Wednesday morning. On the list for this weekend is installation of the sand flag, mounting bracket for the diff and transmission breather filters, 2 x Travel buddy 12v ovens, Engine saver low water alarm, Tyredog TPMS, MSA second row canvas seat covers and the Obie's 4x4 rear window saver.

                      Very nice, where does the coolant sensor go back to? Do the seat covers make any rubbing noises?

                        I haven't noticed any rubbing noises. Do you mean the covers themselves on the seats or against each other or clothing against the covers making the noises? The low coolant sensor has an LED that sits in the cabin and I installed it in a blank. It's a red LED which comes with a sticker and also a piezo alarm that goes off.

                          Wasn't sure about getting delivery of the new LED upgrade in Melbourne before i left for my trip so had it delivered to the caravan park in Coober Pedy. The map, doors and sun visor lights have a whiter light but not significantly brighter than the original. The big difference is the centre cabin and rear light which is massively brighter because of the panel LED which is installed to replace the original. A huge improvement and definitely worth the $55. Will post some photos when i get back to vic.

                              Hmmm, nearly 5 months between posts......Ive been a bit slack. Since then have purchased but yet to install 2 ironman 16w Cree LED lights to mount on the back of the roof cage instead of a rear tyre mounted option, 2 metres of slimline strip LED from ebay to stick under the foxwing and a Stebel air horn. The wife managed to drive on a deflated/deflating MT 4-rib the other day. Not a pretty sight!

                                air horn is an interesting option to add?
