Hi all,
Well as you know Bilbo has been undergoing a face lift, but I have just bought a new Daihatsu to remount him onto.
As the Daihatsu is a dark blue, I am thinking that I will put some new pin strips on the Romahome so that it will look right.
Any suggestions of a good place that could do this for me?
Happy new years all, hope you all have a great one.
Cheers Dave

Hi Dave.
Yay to Romahomes on Daihatsus! Can't answer you question though. Good luck with Bilbo's finishing touches. I have put the date for the meet in my calendar. I think I was the only one who voted for early March, just becasue I'm impatient.
Cheers. Dan

Hi Ellie, Thanks for the offer of help, am I right in thinking I will need to remove the engine cover on the back? Have a great new years and don't do anything I wouldn't ;D ;D ;D ( options are not limited ) Do you think you and yours will be able to come to the meet in May? if so I would like to be able to put your name on the confirmed list for the bookings. Have a great one Dave

Hi Dave,
Yes you have to remove inspection plate, and dependeing on yr of daihatsu you will have to saw off the mounting plate of the inspection cover as the height of it doesn't allow the roma home to be pushed up right up to the back of the cab. Also you may find the bolts and pins are not in the same place. Appears to be an easy job, but alot of fiddling about.!
Anything I can do to help, just ask!
Sunshine1 Ellie

But hopefully it will be a yes! Hes just shy!
