    Aft pull out bed in conversation area

    Aft pull out bed in conversation area

    On my 05 340DA I find this bed area to small for 2 adults to fit with some level of comfort. I feel if i had an insert that fills the area from the edge of bench seat below the breaker box to the vacuum cupboard this could be achieved. Anyone done something like this? :huh: Regards Gidders

    Stereo upgrade assitance sought

    Figured out the stock clarion speakers were only in need of some adjustment - balance, bass and treble through the 700 unit - so I'm sticking with the clarions for the time being as the sound is pretty good all round.

    Anchoring tips
