Re: What did you do to your van today?
Swapping my rear calipers tomorrow. Any tips or tricks or stuff I should keep in mind? Rotors and pads were changed a month ago, I'm also changing the slide pins as I go along. I've got a bleeder kit with a one way valve as well as a brake line clamp so I should be able to bleed them by myself.

Re: What did you do to your van today?
Went well for the most part, right rear brake pipe from brake line to caliper snapped as I was unwinding it. Should have let the penetrating oil work a bit more, rusted as hell in there. Managed to make a plug from the old broken hose, so it won't leak while I'm sourcing a new pipe. Think also I might have cross-threaded the left hand caliper brake pipe. Went smooth for a couple of turns and then I had more resistance. Hopefully just dirty threads. Got it seated nicely in there, didn't leak as I was bleeding it but we'll see when the engine is on and servo is involved.

Re: What did you do to your van today?
After fitting the Bi-Xenon headlights, on Saturday, been struggling to get them coded, on the plus side Iv coded enough to actually have lights, always a bonus on nightshift!! Also fitted the door modules to get the folding mirrors working as the switch arrived on Saturday as well, but they won’t code either, so getting pro help when I get home on Friday, tho I can get the beam lined up, at present their looking for snails 6ft infront of the bumper

@Leeroy80 it was a kwm593bt. Iv since changed it as for the life of me I couldn't get the phone to work, I could hear them but they couldn't hear me. I changed it for a pioneer one with an external microphone and it's been fine

I like it. We use to do our own illuminated badges in 90's. Trends do go in circles
