I am back at work on friday.
Also do you think because you have so many holes in the bulk head that just go into the engine bay, that this is letting air into the cab thats causing condensation?
if you block them up along with new window rubbers you may see an improvement?

good point ste, ill make that one of the next things i do as its starting to piss me off..
ice on the INSIDE!
bad news about my compressor though
it never turned up, i spoke to the delivery people, its been signed for and the driver claims he delivered to my house - but he didnt
the guy i bought it off has to put a claim through and when thats sorted i should get another one
just means more waiting!
thanks for the info about the speakers guys - much appreciated!
ill probably buy one of them things later and then just play about with it all until i get it working..
you dont have to worry about sound quality

dude, there's not much on that list at all concidering where we where with it.
I think i might be up again this saturday. See if we can't try to finish off some of the wiring jobs. could do with you buying another switch as well. I want to do the wiring for bags to the igntion while we've got it all in bits & so we need an over-ride switch for it.
have you bought any of the bits & bobs you need yet?
does that battery fit???
