Product Information

Then, with the mounting plate in position (using the top hole and pencil line as guides), I drew around the lower hole. Marking across the diagonals gave the centre, where the drill would need to cut.

The first thing to do was to remove the surrounds on the existing units. These simply unclipped and lifted away to expose the fittings underneath. Very often these are little more than finger-tight, but if you do need more strength, a small pair of pliers will help to loosen them enough for you to unscrew them by hand.Standard light 2 Pivot crescent-shaped plastic to expose screwhead 3 Remove screws 4 Carefully pull wires to access spade terminals 5 Note connections and separate them 6 New light with USB 7 Fixing new light 8 The completed job 9 Charging a tablet (caravanner of the future on ‘Grumpa’s’ knee!) Finally, I use a handy app, Antenna Aligner, available from the App Store and Google Play, which will show you the best direction to point your antenna and whether it should be in a horizontal or vertical attitude.

To remove these lights, the crescent-shaped plastic pivots around the switch in both directions, but won’t pivot out of the way, because of the stem for the reading light.

Yes, you can continue to return items as normal as long as you follow the government guidelines about leaving your house. That’s fine if you’re buying a new van, but what about those that don’t have one fitted? The good news is that they’re relatively easy to install, and you’ll probably be able to source a unit that matches the other fittings in your caravan. Pivot the plastic in one direction to expose one of the screwheads underneath. Then, using a suitable screwdriver, remove that screw. Take a look at our guide to the best TV aerials for a caravan guide to help you find the one for you. Some manufacturers put reading lights in the bedroom, which to me doesn’t necessarily seem the best place for USBs, especially if there’s no shelf for whatever is being charged.
