its the unit that goes below the kenwood head unit that does satnav, cd, radio, etc but does not have ext temp, compass, and crucially, mpg!? so the upgrade has all these things that earlier warriors have as standard.......eh?

Basil, did you see this thread;

Camelius' Truck

Camelius wrapped his entire truck in this stuff: http://solutions.3m.com/wps/portal/3M/en...rotection/Film/ - which according to Camelius is very resilient to stone chips and scratches. He said he backed into a rock or something and it didn't touch the paint. Have a gander. Might suit you.....

nice one Luke, I bet its horribly expensive, can`t find a price though.

I spoke to my local dealer about it. He said it has to be priced on a per job basis. A lot of people use it to just protect specific areas. And he confirmed it's tougher than a regular wrap. For a full coverage he wouldn't give me a quote unless I took my truck round to him. But he said it would be no more than a normal wrap. So expect to pay £1500 if you have it cover the whole truck.

Ta George, feeling a bit like a traitor - poor old truck keeps looking at me as I go out to the new one..... I can almost hear it "yooooouuu B4st4rd! thats it! just walk away! hope you crash - if you do, don`t come crawling back thinking you can just pickup (lol) where you left off, ya Judas!"

I think its just held on by some sort of double sided tape, ask bootsie he had to take his offff, mine was removed but it was done by the guy who made my bumper, also why are you removing it?

#90 by Basil , Sat Mar 30, 2013 6:14 pm

Had the truckman UK aluminium tonneau cover "professionally" fitted today - ffs one of the fitting screws has been screwed in too far and starred the outer wing! pushed the paint out til its cracked - conversation to be had in the morning regarding the future of fitters testicles. I`m a reasonable man - normally, but since rising to the order of the Barbie......by feck this`ll be ugly! - (truckman top looks well - pics tomorrow)

Basil the enraged

Oooooh nooooo.

Is it one of those Mountain Tops that you've got?

#96 by Basil , Tue Apr 02, 2013 10:54 pm

it is - the load liners out just now - going back in the morning, after waxoyl the tub, but that was before one of the lads spotted the twat in the squadron - honestly, the radio had been retuned to radio one, it had been out on the road christ knows where - fecking HATED that in the old truck let alone this one - I`m the perfect customer , I don`t get upset or rude or angry, If he`s reasonable and puts it all right quickly without argument I might even pay the bill.

#98 by Alan G , Tue Apr 02, 2013 10:58 pm

I would be asking why it had been out on the road when all the were fitting was a cover on the back & also unprofesional to use the customers stereo

I would be seriously kicking arse.

#99 by Discodaz , Tue Apr 02, 2013 11:00 pm

Me too,i would be furious
