IanV8 Posted January 9, 2014 Share Posted January 9, 2014 Gee Fortunately my slide out was in so a couple of quick pictures front and rear to show the in position. It protrudes by about an inch and you can see the seals in the compressed position. Ian 2018 Range Rover Sport AB, 2022 Buccaneer Cruiser registered in 2023.

GEESHAZ Posted January 9, 2014 Share Posted January 9, 2014 Thanks Ian i just wanted confirmation the slide out was correct because there will be some resisitance on the seals whilst towing. How much did it csot to get the back end repaired? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IanV8 Posted January 10, 2014 Share Posted January 10, 2014 (edited) Another mod carried out yesterday, a new drain hole in the sat dish at the lowest point. Gee pm sent. Dom Some white tank tape has done a good job keeping it together and does not look too bad until it is replaced.

twohoots113 Posted January 20, 2014 Share Posted January 20, 2014 Thanks for the pictures Rob, it may well be helpful. We shall probably have a trial run and see if it bothers us. ..or rather me, Rog appears to be a little hard of hearing at times. ..... Jill Hi, we've also gone for the chest of drawers. They had one at the showroom that wasn't actually fitted. It's virtually the same as the chest of drawers in our Elddis, with the fold out tabletop. We are still having the seating cushions with ours. Thanks for the pictures Rob, it may well be helpful.

twohoots113 Posted January 20, 2014 Share Posted January 20, 2014 Hi Jillp, Sorry to be so late in my reply, only just seen this toipic. With regard to your question on Nemisses Ultra wheel locks, yes they do fit, I have two on my IB4. The only comment that I would make is that because the wheel spokes are quite thick it is not always possible to fit the wheel lock so that the plate covers all the wheel nuts. This is because the pin going through the wheel rim will foul the chassis and on occasions the brake drum to but they do fit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
twohoots113 Posted January 21, 2014 Share Posted January 21, 2014 Hi all Des is my name I thought this new thread would help all those involved in buying or present owners of Eterniti Caravans to exchange ideas which they can make our vans better for our individual needs. I own & use a IB4 2013 model purchased in February this year. My better half & me think the van is a great design & generously laid out. But even so we still found things to have done to personalise it to our liking. so here goes had done so far. 1 Status plus directional Ariel fitted inside the washroom just above the radiator this allows us to view TV while locating transmitter for peaking gain of areil. 2 Cupboard put in between front bench seats for magazines extra. 3 Cupboard put underneath the freezer for a shoes. 4 Black splash back put behind hand wash basin. 5 Sky box fitted inside osf cupboard just in front of slide out. We thought this was a good idea because already fitted in that cupboard is the auto/sat system. the reason we did not have sky box in the large cupboard behind the TV was because we wanted to use this cupboard for our under clothes extra with the main wardrobe just bellow. 6 New 2014 rear end fitted this was done because my drive raises up very sharply also had my drive re designed so the slope is more gradual this is my bit for this new thread be interested to hear what others have had done please excuse my typing & spelling I have explained the reason for this in previous posts thanks & look forward to some more posts Des Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
twohoots113 Posted January 21, 2014 Share Posted January 21, 2014 Hi Des, I too have a 2013 IB4, I have not done much but two things that I have done is to fit a towl rail to the underside of the shelf above the toilet. I took the shelf off and drilled in from the underside of the shelf right at the front so that my longer screws would go into the lip mounted on the top side of the shelf. The other thing that I have done is to fit two coat hooke on the wall between the bathroom door and the exterior wall. Dennis at Eterniti mentioned that if you tap carefully down the wall from the roof there is a solid piece of wooden frame behind the facing panel that you can screw into. Re the waste bin, I am afraid that we just bought a small peddle bin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
twohoots113 Posted March 18, 2014 Share Posted March 18, 2014 Has any one bought the keyless fobs from RV Locks on the caravan exterior doors that come from the US and if so what do you think of them? I have just emailed Paul Curren the Aftersales Manager and he tells me that Eterniti don't order the door locks with the keyless fobs. I am thinking of ordering two, one for each set of keys but they are not cheap at $39. 99 each and that is before post and packing to the UK. Would be greatful for any info.

There was some posts on here from someone who had bought them, try searching the Eterniti forum. See below. http://www. caravantalk. co. uk/community/topic/83059-eterniti-owners/?hl=%2Bremote+%2Bfob I don't see the point in carrying a fob around when you can just use the keypad, we love not having to carry the keys around.

If the key pad malfunctions and you do not have the key is there anyway you can get into the van? Graham Graham I contacted Paul at Eterniti this morning, he was very helpful, there is a company in this country that are agents for RV Locks if anyone wants to get a key fob for their van. Their trading name is Star Spangled Banner (well it would be wouldn't it), their address is Plots Farm, Spalford Road, North Scarle, LN 6 9HF. Telephone number 01522 778944, the man to speak to is called Duncan. The key fob can be ordered from the States, they don't keep them, it can take up to three weeks to get and the cost is £41. 79 each and the part number is 318097. If anyone orders one and wants to know how to programme it in if you Google "RVLocks. com" and under their site is a U Tube video all about fitting and programming the door locks including the key fob. It's very informative. Patrick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The advice is to make sure you leave a set of keys in the car, not much good if you have the car keys in the van. Ian 2018 Range Rover Sport AB, 2022 Buccaneer Cruiser registered in 2023.

Hoghton Gypsy Posted March 19, 2014 Share Posted March 19, 2014 I also ordered one from the States in January and haven't received mine, as yet. I chased them about this and they said that I should have received an email regarding additional delivery charges for shipping to the UK. I stated that I hadn't and they finally agreed to ship the part at their cost due to the delay. I've been tracking the delivery via UPS and it arrived in the UK yesterday at 19:00.
