My chocs as i call them are 26 years old. Made of an old plank and in two different lengths so that one can fit o top of the other. Painted silver so i don`t leave them in the grass. Also have a pair of plastic jobbies that appear too short

£38 a pair only thing putting me of is the size of them.
Got a set at Peterboroiugh, £25 pr.
With our Merc 416, the wheels are too big for the indentations so have to use wood blocks as stoppers (if I leave the handbrake on, can't swivel the drivers seat )
One bag has come unstitched.
Big but very useful height

Those hand brakes realy are a pain!
And all those people you hear moaning about Mercedes American Style foot operated parking brake (even fitted to Vito's). I think they are great and would be much better on a Sprinter than the hand job!
Nuke - your link did work and I used it initially in my post. Then when I checked it, it would not open.
Zeb - I used pieces of wood at present and have various pieces. The weight and space is becoming the issue.
The Milenco ones - tried those too - no good. The wheel does not fit in the recess bit and I am worried about tyre damage as I am on chocks for upto 21 days at a time.
Fiamma - they seem to skid out of the way when driving on to them.
Next....

Trev.
If you want a hand job get a Renault one - mine pulls up to set the brake and then drops down flat again so the seat will swivel, you just pull it up again and press the button to release the brake - easy.
Modus Operandi Swiveling Merc Drivers Seat Whilst on Ramps.
1. Mount ramps in reverse ( lower gear helps better positioning precision)
2. Leave in reverse gear.
3. Swivel seat a few degrees to release locating peg. (Bit Stiff for wifey)
4. Stand alongside Van and with your right hand apply the foot brake.
5.Wee wifey inside van releases handbrake swivels seat thro 180 deg and re-applies handbrake.
6. Job done in a couple of minutes.
Which is a lot less than it took me to write this.
