    My caravan windows from a well known auction site weren't drilled in the right places however I fitted one successfully. Went to do the 2nd; again not drilled in the right places! But low and behold, I drilled right through to the outside! Bit of good fun, this van conversion lark! Ha Ha. Easy fix though. Phew!

    Smart little windows are those mate. That adhesive is terrible stuff to squeeze out of the tubes. Me and my son did one with a hand gun and even after it had been on a radiator for hours it was still hard going. We ended up buying a air powered adhesive gun for £20 and borrowed a small compressor, made it so much easier.

    At 2mins 'these were'nt cheap, 300 for the pair', I was surprised that they are that inexpensive, very reasonable indeed I'd say, especially for the pair, unless you meant 300 each, then they'd be too pricey. So encouraging to see you soldiering on like you do, in the cold, outside, on your own, a true trojan. Best wishes Alan, in Norfolk.

  • @carloknuwer1026
    @carloknuwer1026 4 роки тому +1

    Job well done I'd say. You could leave the isolation on the panels and stick Velcro on the isolated side like I told you in the last video.
    In the other hand, nice little curtains on a spiral cord let oxigen in and light out. I would be opting for the last one.
    Good and cheers mate🍷😄🍻

    They are very nice Windows and I did look at the price of them previously, a bit rich for my budget camper and also bigger than I need though. I did however order one of the smaller rubber mounted non opening windows.
    Nice to people speak to on the phone and delivered quickly as well.
