    Swift Window Blinds and Mechanisms

    I've actually managed to find the knobs, £10 each on amazon or £8.50 each on ebay. The whole system is really expensive to buy so we're looking into fitting a cheaper home roller blind that will clip to the bottom of the window when pulled down.

    7 & 13 pin electrics

    I didn't notice anything underneath but I didn't really click to be fair so it could be there 😂. I noticed the 7pin on top in the cradle which was plugged into the van. If it hasn't got the 13pin lead, obviously I'll need to buy the adapter for the car. Because the 7pin is on the van and not the...

    Luna Clubman 2008

    Thank you, I think I'll stay away from that one. I found it a bit strange it wasn't declared before I viewed the van. Back to the drawing board 😊😊
