Hi jim we're in surrey, near guildford I could measure the wall height if you like? Or here's a photo with them on the van (as is my profile picture).

Sounds like a lot of mucking about and outlay just to get some LEDs on the van (even if they were road-legal)?

We've just had 195/80 R15Cs fitted to ours. £76 a corner, fitted. Not the cheapest but the tyre place is really convenient so they got our business. As a result we have a set of four 195/55 R15 laying "fallow" if they're of use to anyone? Really good tread, hardly used. Changing from 155 to 80...

Are there any vehicles at the venue? ie a museum/collection ?

We'll hopefully be there, with van. It's empty at the moment though. Who else is taking their van ?

Ace info! Thanks all :-) Best avoid flapping the accelerator about then. At some point we'll do the HIF44 conversion but first things first .. gotta get him running well and get used to driving him, which is currently going very well :-D

Aha - according to this site: http://sparkplugcrossreference.co.uk/1231-ngk/1245-champion/n9y-n9y-n9y.html N9Y = NGK BP6ES so the BP7ES he had were too 'cold'. Hm. The NGK site suggests symptoms would be: "Carbon fouling occurs when the spark plug firing end does not reach the self-cleaning...

Panky: good plan, i hadnt thought of extending those arms. The challenge is that my wife really likes the seat as it is so i need to accommodate myself without compromising her position, as it were.

Jimberlake : I'm only a bit taller - 6'2 maybe perhaps i have long legs or sumat. Or i'm jus lazy and really want a hammock.

I managed to cut about a millimetre or so off the nut 'depth' and cut a flat into the sides of the thread, which gave me enough to grab the stud with mole grips. With some carefully considered effort and language, it all came apart ☺ Martin - thanks for the info, do you have wheel studs in...

Ok might be a bit tricky for the moment then seems that atsome point our paths will cross ☺ Just thought .. is postage an option? no idea how much they weigh/ likely cost. Obviously i'd foot the bill.

Sorry picdidnt upload.. heres the seat. Any advice on modifying this so it can move back a bit more? i dont mind a bit of welding if need be.
