[QUOTE="Lesgold, post: 621487, member: 9840"] Hi Nightjar A mate gave me his Chinese heater when he sold his van. I installed it about 4 months ago. A relatively simple task but you do get a good workout. You are inside the van, under the van, inside the van etc, etc about a hundred times. Measure twice and cut once does not apply here. I reckon measure a dozen times and then re- measure again is the go. Like Doug said, a small pilot hole as a test is the go. With tanks, wiring harnesses, pipes, cross members, wheel arches etc under the van, the chances of jagging the perfect spot to mount the unit is a bit of a lottery. I wired my unit directly to the battery and installed an isolation switch just for the extra safety (especially when the van is being stored) I also just recently extended the exhaust to ensure that it sent fumes outside the line of the van.
