Hi Chris,
GSV are a smallish company in Wingfield
Adelaide. If you go to Albert (the boss) with a drawing of what you want, they will make it. Its all custom work, but the quality of their stuff is superb.
My canopy cost $5720 about a year ago, and then I fitted out the inside myself. So for that price, I got the "box" with flip up doors each side on struts, and nice quality locks all round, finished in 2 pack to match the vehicle.
The variaous _Affordable_Storage_Drawers.aspx I've added have been made frrom ply, and I use Hettich runners. Other framework and roofrack is steel mesh or ply.
I bought 2nd hand Recaros ($600 pair) and had them fitted by a
seat shop ($290 each). They are very comfortable on a long trip. The only downside is that the side of the
seat is a little high, so you have to step up over it instaed of just sliding into the
seat - but its just something you get used to. They don't have a
suspension system.
I'm using Old Man Emu
suspension and I went for stronger springs than what they wanted to sell me. I've very happy with the ride which is now better than I'ver had on other 4wds. I think the longer wheelbase of the 79series helps on the rough roads.
Cheers
Phil
