    Great run thru mate, love the feedback and tips. It’s nice to come across videos that aren’t all about the top end canopies that are just well outside the average campers budget.

    Really good clip guys....... like the "what would I do differently?" and the mistakes were an honest statement. I am of the opinion that a set up will never be completely 100% as our direction and requirements change and new tech always being developed. Would def watch more of your clips! I have also been caught out with remembering what prices I told my misso things cost!!!!

      Haha! Yes.. the truth always comes out eventually! And you’re so right- as requirements change set ups change! Thanks so much for watching!

    I love your honesty! That is so much value hearing the things to do differently from someone who’s done it. Thankyou.

    You can refill with a hose pipe connected to your gravity feed tap. Open you current refill tube to release the air pressure. Works well on my camper van that I built

    Bottom fill mate. Open that top pipe, connect the garden hose to the outlet and bottom fill the tanks instead

    Just as an idea for you, if you don't end up putting a pump on your water tank, use your outlet at the back for an inlet and the inlet you have used just as a vent 🤙🏼

    Great video mate !! Helped heaps. I have the exact same draws and dual Battery set up. Looking to upgrade to a tray and box now.

      Thanks so much for watching! Glad it helps. The drawers are really good! Good luck with your upgrade.

    Put a sintered bronze breather on the tank, remove the filler and just back fill the tank through the tap.

    What is there thinking behind not fitting a filler or tap . Very strange

    Can you still see out of your side mirrors now that the canopy is on?

  • @bricemckellar
    @bricemckellar Před 2 lety +1

    Hi good video , just a thought on keeping canopy cool i use foilboard insulation glued to the canopy roof and walls, seems to work well

    • @offroadbetweenthecoasts7003
      @offroadbetweenthecoasts7003  Před 2 lety +1

      Thank you! Might have to give it a go.

    • @MATT-zj7zj
      @MATT-zj7zj Před 2 lety +2

      Dont use foil board it dosnt work there no air barrier and just holds heat i got sucked into that one first round , best option is extra heavy duty silver air cell insulation 32mm diameter bubbles 12mm thick is what i use amazing the diffrence it made

    • @offroadbetweenthecoasts7003
      @offroadbetweenthecoasts7003  Před 2 lety

      Thank you! Will check it out!

  • @pron00b08

    Hey mate love the vid, currently doing something very similar. how did you secure the unistrut to the canopy? More pop rivets or something a bit more heavy duty?

  • @MrNick1092
    @MrNick1092 Před 2 lety +1

    Awesome clip guys and amazing fit out. I was looking at grabbing one of these MW canopies was wondering what your overall opinion on them were. How is it holding up and how is the dust ingress?
    Hope you’re enjoying the NT!!!

    • @offroadbetweenthecoasts7003
      @offroadbetweenthecoasts7003  Před 2 lety +1

      Thanks for watching! We’ve just come back from a 600km dirty, dusty, 4WD trip and yes, we had dirt and dust ingress. It’s not a huge amount but it’s still enough to annoy me. I’ve only just adjusted the latches after the trip so hopefully that will help get a better seal for next time. 👍🏼 I do also get a bit of water ingress in the underbody tool boxes when there is heavy rain. apart from that, canopy is not too bad.

    • @MrNick1092
      @MrNick1092 Před 2 lety +1

      Thanks heaps for your reply! Yeah have heard similar hoping adjusting it can pinch it a bit tighter. Bloody dust! Haha

    how was the paint jo on your canopy? is that a matt black? nice rig mate...

    • @offroadbetweenthecoasts7003
      @offroadbetweenthecoasts7003  Před 2 lety

      Thanks! It’s powered coated Toyota graphite. To be honest it scratches super easy, it’s not the best quality powered coating job. Thanks for watching.

    Apparently MW now do the filler point and also add a water pump etc

  • @brentwismer5602

    Nice job mate, hope you enjoy the NT. Can I ask what size wire you used to run to the inverter, just bought a Renogy inverter (2000W) and I reckon the wire they supplied is a fire waiting to happen.

    In hindsight do you think the 65 litre is a little small?
    I've got 2 kids thinking ill need at least an 80

  • @mundydiludovico5268
    @mundydiludovico5268 Před 2 lety +1

    Great build thanks for the tips. I’m about to start my own build and measure twice cut once can save a lot of time down the track.
    Just a thought , would it be easier to move the fuse box on the other side with rest of them for easier access.
    Enjoy your time in the NT, most of us dream of doing something like that especially if your a fisho and hunter.

    • @offroadbetweenthecoasts7003
      @offroadbetweenthecoasts7003  Před 2 lety

      Good luck with your build! Let us know how you go. Nick has left it there so he can add additional batteries down the track i think. Thanks for watching.
