Hello all again getting my truck tomorrow night and can't wait! The truck is painted black but on top of metallic green ! I like the black but I'm really into army green like US army green,
I've looked around but not sure of the right colour green or the name of the colour!
I see a photo on this forum and it was the exact green I'm after but I've been looking all evening and can't find it again! It was a convertible suzuki
Any ideas of the colour name or that convertible I can't find ???? I'm not very good with this computer stuff and trying to put another picture up of my rig!!!

Bingo!! Thanks for that ! This is great !
Another question for ya ?
The fella I got the truck from said that the heater only blows on the windows,
Is this true for this model or was it a polite way of saying the heater is knackerd and only works up and not down!
When I first saw this truck it was full of mud and was thinking the bottom of the heater compartment might be knackerd! Wot do you think

Heater will be full of leaves. Theres a "how to" in the DIY section on the front page or it's a dash out job.
Could be a damaged rod in the mechanism too.
When the blowers are on move the controls through all settings. You may be able to hear or even see leaves blowing through the vents. The controls should move firmly with a noticeable position on each setting. With the engine and all noise off when you change the vents from windows to feet you ahould be able to hear the vents moving with a plasticy clapping noise.

If it blows hot to the windscreen/side windows then at least the heater matrix is clear
The design of it does not allow hot air to come out of the dash vents, only windscreen/side windows or footwell.

As Jordi says though, if it only blows cold then the matrix will need cleaning.
The how-to works well for leaves, but not so well if it's full of dried up mud
Have fun, enjoy your new toy.
