@vanlifenomad
@vanlifenomad Ай бұрын
@ooooobpbpbpooooo yes the filter in cab is easier. I've also noted on my last heater installation the heater runs better if the filter is upright, this stops air in the system causing smoke. Upright filter = no heater smoke

I've just retrimmed the cab roof panel this week. I replaced the joining strip fixings with the fir tree style ones. When refitting I simply left the joining strip in place and dropped it about 8mm which allowed me to slide the back of the roof panel in. Byronix sell the best quality ones. I buy most of my clips from them.

They also used to sell the headlamp adjusters but stopped due to minimum order amounts being too much for them. Byronix have quite a few clips for the T4. Never had a problem with them in 10+ years.
