Re: Tlou - My TD42
It was time to fit Peter Connan rocksliders
In the fitment process when we removed the mud guards, I found this surprise on both sides:

Re: Tlou - My TD42
It's a really strange design on the OEM mudflaps to collect so much debris! Do you have other pictures of the rock sliders from other angles?
Cheers, Gareth

Re: Tlou - My TD42
So Tinus asked me about seat covers... now I have a set of cotton canvas seat covers, very pleased with the outcome!
If you look for seat covers speak to Tinus.

Re: Tlou - My TD42
Those covers look great! Let us know how they hold up.
And you still owe us more pics of your rock sliders

Re: Tlou - My TD42
As previously mentioned I have fitter Peter Connan rocksliders and there was a request for more photo's:
Peter make the sliders from a jig that ensure the slider and bracket holes to bold the sliders onto the body fit 100% to existing threaded holes.

Re: Tlou - My TD42
I posted on Anthony's - Ant's Custom Workshop" page that the Trol went to him for some TLC, here are photo's to what he has done:
The Madman was one of the first things I added to vehicle when I received it. Now with the turbo fitted I had the Boost indicator and engine oil temp reading added to the existing voltage, EGT and coolant temp and level. This was one of the BEST things I have done, as Tinus says "Om te meet is om te weet", and recently this was an eye opener for me, more in the next post... I bought this unit from Ant when he advertised it and my son fitted it for me, what a lovely and easy to use radio. I asked Anthony to fit a reverse camera and replace the factory fitted speakers with quality speakers. As I do not know anything about speakers, I asked for Kicker as I have heard of them, his supplier did not have stock and Focal speakers were fitted, including custom fitting of tweeters in the from doors: Ant also fitted these spots for me, and I am pleasantly surprised on how efficient they are for their size:
