I'm not trying to be a party pooper and I think its a great idea but can I throw a thought in the mix? Are you leaving yourself a bit open for potential problems in todays litigious world?
Lets say someone watches a video on your website of the install of a satellite system, showing someone drilling a 50mm hole in their van roof, who you have paid (all be it via a discount) without mentioning safety goggles, scaffolding dangers, correct use of ladders, h & s bullsh*te etc. Then someone sees this and thinks that looks easy and drills through cables or falls off their own van roof.
Are you in a sticky legal position? Could you be legally considered to be the responsible professional who as potential gained by selling the punter the satellite system by implying its all easy peasy to diy fit.
Yes maybe that examples a bit extreme but I just thought I'd mention it because thats what I thought of when I read your idea.
I think your all right in what you say about protecting yourself from litigation. But I think with some legal protection on the webpage before viewing the file should be sufficient. Besides as i'm basically rebuilding the whole of my van, I would definately fit the parts first where I can, before filming. Sorry to spoil the fun.
Who knows I could be the next frank spenser of motorhome DIY
Although I'm not ginger but I think the mack and beret may suit, or Perhaps I could be a James May as I share the first name but I don't use the word cock much, if at all. Worst thing is i'm a yorkshire man at birth and live in the southeast, so i'll probally end up a clarkson No comments about Hammond please.
I could be my own TopGear, i'll call it Mo'Gear or even maybe Muchas Gearos and i'll do it in a cuban dictator uniform. I'm sure it would go well in the states
only thing left on my shopping list is Satelite kit to be fitted as have everything else installed (by previous owner) pm me if your interested and we will discuss further.
As to the safety side I have very strong personal safety training and work related training also currently doing safety at Work NEBOSH course so would be able to plan and get filmed and fitted possibly with full safety conciderations (its not gas so dont need a gas certificate LOL) and agree with comments from Twinky
only thought now is not at home offshore so with everything else on roof ie Heki Skylights Ariel and Solar Panale do not know where it could possibly be fitted hahahahahahaha
