Build Day 4- Front Brakes & Heater

Day 4- Front Brakes and Heater

Thanks to Derek for his quick reply with some pics, shown below, we were able to fit the front brake hoses tonight with the use of the photos he helpfully sent. So as I cooked dinner dad finished the job.

Heater Fitment

After dinner we decided to quickly fit the heater. This was very simple and I can imagine was made much easier by having two of us. We started with the sealant around the edge, then slotted it into place ensuring the cable was through the vent holes then put the vent face plate into place, passing the bolts through.

After the panel is in place more silicone is run along and around the edges to ensure no water is able to run through
When the vent plate goes on make sure the ducts for diverting air down towards your feet, or "Horns" as they seem to be called, are downwards, which is the other way up than it arrives.
