Cheers thanks
Yea starting to feel like im getting on top of the hole project an turning at as planned, still a bit to go yet...lol
Heater came ftom Tasmaina, called a Genus ll, $1800, with all the bits.
Have used most of the other manufacturers heater but not this one do going to be interesting.
Like these types as they once started they instant, this can supply up to 15 minutes of hot water before going cold , well thats what they say , we will see.
Reason for this one as it fitted in the only spare space under the floor I had left.

Hi
Well at last have water Heater installed, took longer than expected as had to alter wiring loom as I don't like taped up excess wiring or cables, also wanted controls with the rest that run everything else.
Weighted it the other day an wasn't far from estermation which ended up 2800kgs, leaving few left for personal belongings.
As you can see spares are mounted an locking system in place.
Added a couple of pics be more later.

Hi all
Well a bit more progress, have now played floor, and just about finished bathroom.
Sorting the plumbing and waste had the old noggin working over time but got it sorted on the end.
If all goes well hope to get road worthy next week, have had to alter a few things on the light department to make it all legal, mainly the number plate as didn't want it mounted to the spare wheels. Also opened up the back step to store the waste hose save keeping it inside.
