Re: Adventure Island trailer mod

Looks great Pete. :up: Good idea to keep all the wet and smelly stuff out of the Audi.

Areas of Geelong can be OK, however I'd be heading to Clifton Springs as it will give you the best protection and some good fishing options.

But this is usually with smaller head units. You have the parts so something you can play around with. With it sitting further forward and a b...
