110 Hard Top for Camping / Short Trips with two dogs
I purchased my 110 Hard Top with the intention of doing some shorts trips around the UK with my two German Shepherds, although I have never done much camping!!

Over the last few months I have been making some changes to the back and I am now starting to think about some other bits, which I have probably done in the wrong order albeit access for cables will be easy. I would be interested for any thoughts and guidance on the following: -

- Leisure battery installation - Type and location. My plan is to run a small fridge from it and maybe a couple of minor things. From other threads it looks like one might fit next to the existing battery. Is this the best place?
- 240v connection if I stay at a camp site - Would this be located under the rear arch or is there a better place? And any other guidance or things I should consider?
- Vent - With my dogs in the back and the three of us sharing I will need ventilation of some description. I was considering keeping the front windows slightly open and making something to stop anyone reaching in.

Thanks

These work well, we do long continental trips with our 2 lurchers.

They also help with airflow through the USW, and are relatively secure.

Thanks that is the type of thing I would be looking for - I wonder whether I could modify to fit the front window...?
