Re: Heated Items
I recently fitted one of these to my Deauville, On full power, it gets SO hot, I had to turn it down. It wires straight to the battery and an ignition live (to stop you leaving it on by mistake). Velcro attachment to your seat and a quick disconnect, waterproof plug. For just over £20, it's a superb...

Annual Meet 2024
Whilst we were away this year, Michael kindly offered to plan our 2024 trip, somewhere "En France"
