Re: Re: LD11
If you're going to the trouble of taking ip floorboards, you may as well
extend the wiring so that the LD11 can be located somewhere accessible.
Then when (not if) they go wrong, you don't have to lift the carpets again
-
they never go back down as well as when they are first stretched and
fitted!
