Is it possible to fit floor tiles that have heating elements in them? If so where can they be purchased?

I think that the Milenco small leveling blocks will fit in between the wheels on a TA might be worth ringing them

these are the brackets I think you are talking about, I have them on my van and the aeriel has stayed in place during some horrendous winds. http://www.towsure.com/product/9707-Uni-Bracket_inc__Plate

Recently stopped at the C&CC site at Chertsey and needed over 3.5 mtrs to reach the drain. I have made a white plastic twin y piece and carry a couple of different lengths of the 1.25" piping and if needed will cut to size.
