Hi Everyone
I am hoping that someone can help me with the positioning of beam benders on my Autosleeper Clubman, on a VW T4 base, 52 registration.
We are off to France next week so need to sort this out soon. T
he instructions that come with the stickers only cover cars so not much help.
I have tried to attach a photo of headlight but I don't know if this has worked as I have never done it before.
Thanks Chris |

Hi
the marked rectangle on the left of the lens has to be blacked out. I have used black insulation tape. Problems generally are with newer plain lens vans!
Enjoy your trip.

I had this problem last year before France/Spain trip and the on the paclet stuff was a nightmare to understand. I think I had worked it out, then went to the van and found there were some already stuck on. Left them on and going to Italy in about 6/7 weeks.
Have fun |

Hi Derek
Don't forget to turn your headlights on when driving out of towns (we didn't know when we went). Also, if you're carrying bikes, you'll need one of those stripey signs (ODB sells them)

Frenchy beat me to it.
I too use black electrical insulation tape and trim the edges carefully to the right shape. |

Sorry to appear thick, but what do you mean by the" marked rectangle" - can you be more specific?
I have usually bought the "business" from Halfords. My 'van is base on a Sprinter 2000 Reg.
