You can park a car in many different ways…:)

But you have to learn at young age….

or at little less young age you can park your bus in Amsterdam

or later on you take your family and park before the “Vleeshuis” in downtown Antwerp.

You only hope that babies in your collection don’t get hungry at the same time…:)

because if you don’t feed them well this is what happens…

But at certain age collecting starts serious, You park them on age…. Early split, late split and oval…

Also in the early days they parked their cars well!

HMMMMM not always….

But …. Police is watching you, all nicely lined up…:)

happy sunday… relax… and park well…:)

President Biden announced he will release 1 million barrels oil a day for a period of six months.
Flooding the market he will try to damp the crazy prices and stop speculation.

Hopefully that’s the start of a cheaper cost for daily living.
Those savings can be used very well to spend on some new BBT products we like to present you here today.

Welcome @ BBT news.

After the hidden USB chargers in the ashtray of your beetle HERE we now bring you  the same USB solution for the ashtray of your splitty bus.
Since most people don’t use the ashtray anymore, but more likely want to charge a phone or navigation system, the ashtray is the perfect place for a hidden USB connection.

Nicely out of sight when you don’t need it, and easy to pull for use.
This smarter QC0 2.0 / QC 3.0 charger works on both 6 and 12 Volts and has a maximum output power of 18 Watts.

@ 12 Volts it is even a fast charger of 3.5A if your phone supports it.
In other cases and with 6 Volts it charges with a standard strength of 1 A.

Easy to build in and  connect.
This device needs three small diameter holes to be drilled in the ashtray (Not included)

Stay charged, stay connected!

Nothing wrong with our German made sliding door seal for your bay window BBT 7530-500 except the price perhaps.

High quality parts  come with a price tag, as we all know.

But that doesn’t mean there are people who like to keep their bus or kombi going at a more moderate budget.
We decided to dig a second, more economical, version of the left side sliding door seal that fits the bill at a better price.
