thought id add a tracker to the van
so ive bought a cheap 2 wire unit from ebay for £15
http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Mini-Real...cl...1822367389
this will need a std size sim card not included
i looked at price options for Pay as you go and contract
but luckily i have an option with my landline supplier that gives me a free sim
which has 250min/500mb/unlimited text
ideal as the unit only sends texts
anyway unit came so went out and fitted it
for obvious reasons im not showing you the location in the van but its just ground and a battery positive
fitted the sim card powered it up and nothing happened!
had to go read the instruction in pigeon chinnes
only to find a small switch on the circuit board that was not mentioned so switched that and all the lights started to flash
now its just a case of working out the instuctions
to be fair it has worked straght out the box
the only thing i have changed are the passwords and the set timezone
thought today id insulate and carpet the slide door
I stole an idea with the carpet edging upto the seals, it looks smart and finishes the edges,
it also stopping the water wicking in past the seals if you carpet past the seal itself
finished off the side door with a black grab handle for easy closing from inside,
some nice black bolts to fix it and some black pan heads to loose in the carpet.
these fix the top of the slide door panel as the pop on rivets weren't man enough to hold back the carpets
