JiP Posted December 31, 2010 Author Report Share Posted December 31, 2010 Thanks mate, I'll keep that in mind. Not sure that I have too much that needs moving. Just bed, mattress, TV Unit, Computer Table and Gym. The fridge, washing machine etc I will be getting brand new, so thats another trip. Here is the final colour with the first coat of clears. Will put another coat on tomorrow... Hopefully tomorrow I'll pull my finger out and take care of all the wiring and lights. Then Sunday I should start screwing the floor in :) Oh and at some point I need to do the engraving. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Des Posted January 1, 2011 Report Share Posted January 1, 2011 LED tail lights ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JiP Posted January 1, 2011 Author Report Share Posted January 1, 2011 At this point no. Just normal ones. The ones that came with it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JiP Posted January 2, 2011 Author Report Share Posted January 2, 2011 Well in the end I had to go the LED tail lights. I had to replace the cable as I noticed it was rubbing against metal and slicing through when I was pulling it apart. So I bought the cable and just assumed I could use the same tail lights. Turns out the cable I bought is plug and play, all great but I needed the matching LED lamps. Anyway after alot of mucking around I finally installed the timber. I had to take back the stainless steel screws I bought as they are too soft and the first one snapped off as I was screwing it in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JiP Posted January 3, 2011 Author Report Share Posted January 3, 2011 Well finished the floor today :D Siliconed up all the gaps with charcoal coloured silicone. Now all thats left is to attach the gate latches. But for that I need to attatch them to timber. For that I'm using off cuts from the decking.
