Looks good.

Are those cable ties holding the pipes up to the roof? If they are they won't last long IMHO.

which pipes did you buy and how did you fix them in your van?

Thanks

I am getting a new Van soon but am concerned about Poles in my van while working with the doors open.
Don't fancy leaving my  smax 47in there while disappearing round the back of houses
How do you go on on your compact work Daz when the vans out of sight?

Used the B&Q cable ties with soil pipe doubled them up they won't budge and have lasted so there is no need for concern there. Regarding van security I tend to use a longer hose to feed the claber hose reel out side the van and position the hose at centre bottom of doors although it dose pinch the claber hose a little it doesn't affect water flow. Looking to fit the hose under the bumper with input and output port on a bracket if I find one cheap enough, I had seen this for around £8.00 but can't remember the site.

It's funny how people assume things
My van is like a piece of s??t on wheels I make a decent living but am not to keen on spending out on equipment for the van

Just coz u only put in what u need don't mean u not earning without the extremes and the pressure washer in my van all the other equipment wouldn't come to £500, I buy as much as I can off eBay or the cheapest place I can
No point replacing until it's propa finished

Just my opinion
