I'm actually surprised Dometic don't have them for sale in the states yet! Flick them an email and surely they can get them!

Appreciate the feedback

just took to long mate@@TroyStaines

@@danielbruce45 definitely understand - most videos I’m making for clients are now 5-10mins but really do appreciate it thank you!

Legend thank you!

Hey Deano! I sold the 200 about a year after I made these videos to a friend. About 12 months after I sold it he had an issue with one battery that DCS covered under warranty. The battery was still working fine but I believe the bluetooth function wasn't working so it wasn't showing up in the app correctly. I know DCS have released even better batteries since these ones again and it's definitely a mod that I would highly recommend.

Thanks @@TroyStaines Love the Vids. Good to hear things are working well this far down the track. I'm looking at working up a 2012 L200.

@@Deano_KTM they are good 4wd’s mate I definitely miss mine! Appreciate it 🤙

Really wana run this size aswell

Hey mate - i never worked it out accurately but the dash computer (which we all know isn't perfectly accurate) would give me like 14.5ltrs/100km around town and then 12.5ltrs/100km on the highway. To be honest mate I think it was fairly close because on big trips I used to calculate distance of driving between towns compared to how much fuel I could carry and it would always work out to be about what I expected.

@@TroyStaines awesome and any noticable powerloss

@@delkovanderwalt45 nah mate not noticeable especially with the tune and exhaust - more than enough power especially when towing

Sorry to hear about this! Did you try speaking to DCS even though it was out of warranty? I sold the 200 about 3 years ago and the new owner has said he did replace one DCS battery under warranty in the bonnet after about a year. I have a few mates that have them under their bonnets still with no issues.

Haven’t been back for a couple of years now but definitely a good little spot for a camp and wheel 🤙

Same here, they are making camping fun again. I think I'll hint at the double swag for fathers day.

Not sure about a manual but they have heaps of videos on their website and KZbin channel

@@TroyStaines Thanks - did you ever make the video about how to use it that you spoke of in the video when you show the head unit. I have one for my 2011 Sahara but it would be nice to have some instructions rather than just pushing buttons to see what happens.

@@gregmccarthycronulla sorry Greg I never got around to it because EC had come out with their own videos and I’ve since sold the car. I still have a few mates running their screens without issue though. Best thing to do if you are having any problems is give the guys at EC a call - they know their stuff and will help you straight away!

@@TroyStaines Thanks Troy. I only got mine a few days ago and have it working well with CarPlay but it looks like it will do so much more than I expected but I am reluctant to try to figure it out by just pushing buttons. I got mine from the local Sound Guy here in Cronulla NSW. I might give EC OffRoad a call. My car is a 2011 LC200 Sahara which I have had since new (only done 90K) but the head unit started playing up. I got this on recommendation from sound guy for Apple CarPlay but it looks like it will do so much more. My local guy is going to give me a run through tomorrow.

Thanks mate - this is very oldschool & dodgy compared to what i do for my clients today, but i truly appreciate that!

Amazing! I sold the car now to a friend and last time I spoke with them the electrical system is still working great. I've actually just booked in to get my new car done with the same kind of system using DCS batteries and Victron gear!

No worries mate! I'm sure it'll come in handy!

Surely can - zips work from inside and outside!

I couldn't agree more - definitely could do with an LED upgrade to a cooler colour temperature just never got around to it :)

Completely understand Jess… that’s why I called it my ultimate setup because I wasn’t too worried about costs. I’m pretty sure a lot of this gear has dropped in price since I made this video though 🙌

Legends 🙏

Cheers bro 🤙

🤣🤣🤣

Hey Rohan! I've since sold the 200 series but in the end it was working just fine - sometimes there would be the odd thing like it would be a little slow after a very long drive, or the bluetooth wouldn't connect quickly, but it was such small issues that i was willing to put up with since it was a 12yr old car trying to communicate with new software. I know that they have since released new models that friends of mine have that they are all happy with. Definitely worth giving the EC guys a call and having a chat about options for your particular model.

Nah mate you don't need any of that with the Stocklock because it doesn't throw codes like some of the others!

Thanks Robert! Definitely a good idea!

Jsl exhaust and dpf system

It is a 2008 model and there's no particular kitchen setup - if you look at the Rear Drawers video I did you will see.

It was annoying when trying to tie random objects down. I ended up using different style straps that were more easily able to hook around the cross members but it still wasn't perfect. I wouldn't go that way again - a case of it looks awesome but isn't amazingly practical.

I tried to film at night but with a non-cinema drone, it looks like the lights are either stupidly bright or not bright at all so I didn't want to put any trickery shots in there. At the end of the day I was really happy with the STEDI lights and the combination that I had on the 200 and it's one of the main things I miss on my new car.

@@TroyStaines No worries, yeah I'm looking at getting the 7" Stedi Type-X Sport spotties on my 100 series. Or I just go el-cheapo and get King's lethals. I rarely use high beams as I'm in the burbs so I like the idea of having the covers on most of the time.

Unlucky for you mate, Stocky actually has full time job as well, if he cant keep up with orders does that tell u something?

@@cjwall4268 - that may be true but you need to have some processes and procedures in any business to ensure customers end up with a good experience. My issue was I contacted/left msg and then finally spoke to him, ordered one and was told they had Xmas backlog to clear. I then did not hear anything until early June with no updates so did not even know it was coming!

I can’t remember the name of it sorry but I did see that Kings have done a rip off of it now :)

@@TroyStaines thanks. Decided on a Yorktown 46

Good on ya mate appreciate that!

Thank you!

I’ve heard plenty of good stories about the new ones so I’m sure the little issues I had with mine are all fixed :) I’ve sold the 200 now but appreciate your suggestion :)

I’m pretty sure that DCS are the only company that do warrant for under bonnet use

@@TroyStaines nope is multiple

Very slightly on the inner side but it was extremely minor

I've used it a little bit and had no issues at all - seems like great gear! Since doing this, I see now that Drifta Stockton has a good range of recovery gear as well!

@@TroyStaines yeh sweet I'll check it out thanks

Appreciate it Nathaniel!

Main reason most people choose the LC200 over the 79 is for comfort while touring and the automatic gearbox :)

is this a trick question?

Hey Stewart - contact the team at EC Offroad - they supplied all of the stuff for this 200 and also my own 200 - they were great to deal with and know their stuff!

Hey Tim - I think they now have amber versions of these lights for sale which would fix that :)
