    Marine vs exterior plywood

    What are people using for their camper floor bases ? I've had a quote of £88 for Marine ply vs £23 for Malaysian hardwood exterior grade (12mm, 8' x 4' sheet), so trying to understand the cost / value dichotomy.

    Lucas 119SA multi-function stalk

    From the workshop manuals I've noticed that later models, probably the Spacevans, have a multi-function indicator, main beam & horn column stalk.

    Dashboard vinyl

    I'm making a new dashboard cover but my local trimmer doesn't recognise the specific vinyl grain pattern. Does anybody know the name of this please ? Also, the correct names for the both deluxe black and tan options. Thanks
