What have you bought for your Cali today :-)

[Moggymog]

Is this the C1000 model? Was looking a while back but at a grand it was a bit rich - now they are half price I'm tempted.

Yeah the C1000x - I was in the same boat until I saw the price drop.
Haven't been away in it yet since I fitted it, but I use it regularly for work and the laptop/Nespresso machine work a treat.

I just ordered those a few weeks ago, still waiting for delivery!!! Glad to see they look so great and you’re pleased with them!!

Have you received your cabinets yet?

Yes it does include the under driver seat sub, inverter is still there, just had to lose the after market safe, Give them a call, really nice people to deal with and not that far from Nuneaton or Hinckley train station to collect/drop off the van, they will pick you up

@Kimbo Bit of a post revival, but I'm looking at upgrading my audio too.
From your post, it looks like the sub will fit alongside the inverter under the driver's seat, but would like to ask why you had to lose the aftermarket safe?
Also, did you bother with the rear speaker upgrade? TIA

Unfortunately no, I bought this at a local hardware store in the Netherlands at a discount.

Some googling gave me these two for the UK.

They come with really strong double sided sticky tape on them. My green ones had been on for years and they were stuck on really well. I had a job pulling them off yesterday.

Finally took the plunge and got my van a solar panel from Solar solutions

Those doorstep mats look fantastic! I'm curious where they were purchased, especially since the California text adds such a nice touch.

Ordered one of these new Flextail shower bag / buckets. We went for the bucket version as I thought the ability to sit it on a flat surface was probably more useful than to hang it (for us).
Flextail have been around for a while and their mosquito repellent & air pump solutions are popular on here. I was already pondering their 'tiny' shower kit, which is indeed tiny. But that requires a bucket or water container to drop the gizmo in. This version combines the 'tiny' shower pump with the water bag (two styles available) to provide a self- contained solution. We'll use it for beach days as festival contingency situations.

I haven't actually received it yet to comment but posting now as there are a couple of discount codes currently applicable if you buy direct from Flextail.

I think this is quite a new product but they've obviously pushed samples out to YouTube reviewers as there's already a few videos out there.

Nice flextail there, but how hard can it be to have the on/off on the handle itself?

From watching a couple of videos I gather there is a twist on/off switch (and hook) on the shower head. The on/off switch on the bag/bucket controls the pump but the nozzle can be opened & closed with a twist - like a hosepipe nozzle.
They also offer a 'remote' switch which seems to come with a wrist strap, but I didn't bother with that.
