    Seatchange in 110 TD5?

    Hello ! I have reached a conclusion. I need a seat change in my TD5 110. It has the original seats from 2006, and they are worn out. As I am a patient of back-surgery, I see the need for a pair of front seats with more support and comfort than the original seats. I would still need to access...

    Cold weather RTT??

    This sounds like what I`ve been thinking so far. After a cold "nite"/couple of hours trying to sleep in a 1977 tent-trailer at 1100m altitude with -3*C and gale force winds, I am now the proud owner of a Helsport sleeping bag, that are both wide and long enough to actually accomodate me.
