Thanks for your help. I'll have to dig around in the garage see if I can find some clear piping.
In the meantime, I lifted the driver's seat cover to have a look at the top of the tank. Does the f ... |

| Thanks for the reply. Is there an easy way to check if the system is letting in air? I've had a good poke around with a torch, checked all union nuts are done up tight etc, nothing looks obvious. |

You can pick up FM stations on an iPad, usually you have to plug in some headphones to use as an antenna.
I did an audio installation from scratch in mine and bought a Bluetooth amp with no HU. It ... |

Especially the adventure grill. Are they DLRs in the bumper? |
