Hello to everyone I have just bought a 2014 Warwick Duo and have some questions to ask. I have tried to use the search facility but to no avail, possibly I am asking the wrong question!

1 Has anyone fitted driver and passenger door wind deflectors, if so where did you get them from?

2 Has anyone fitted a fly screen to the habitation door, if so where did you get it from?

3 Has anyone upgraded their wheels to larger alloy ones, if so what wheels and tyres size did you fit?

4 Has anyone fitted any device to their engine in order to try and improve the fuel consumption, if so what did you fit and what    improvements did you experience, if any?

Hope someone out there can help.

This is the better way to use the search facility than the simple search if that is what you've been trying..

Reimo do a range of flyscreens for the sliding door, this website is German but if you click on dealer locations it gives several UK companies. Not sure if any fit a RHD van though..

Bigger wheels   = harsher ride

No manufacturer makes hab door fly screens for RHD models

Fitted a performance upgrade to 2013 warwick and took bhp to 148...fuel consumption improved to 33 mpg from 31.

good luck and happy camping

I have seen flyscreen material sold for DIY at caravan accessory shops, maybe a bit of magnetic strip across the top and you could make something suitable similar to this..

We collected our new kemerton in April and had inquired about a fly screen. Our dealer told us that domestic are going to be doing one this year. Would possibly be out around July or August. We are waiting for them to let us know when they are available and we will have one fitted. Would normally be needing it now but weather is so cold that the wee blighters aren't around yet. I suppose that's a plus point !!

Thanks to everyone for their responses and welcome notes.

Not sure about bigger wheels harsher ride. I fitted a set of 18inch wheels to my Wellhouse converted i800 and it actually improved the ride quality.

Geoff what performance upgrade did you fit, where did you have it done, what was the cost?

Nice to see that 32mpg should be achievable.

Will look out for the domestic fly screen and look into the Climair window deflectors.

Thanks again to everyone.
