My next little project is to build in an onboard water supply. I bought a Fiamma tank ages ago that is just to physically big to be of much use, and the side walls are really thin and it's already splitting. I've got the 12volt pump (FloKing at 10litres/minute, auto-start on demand) so that's sorted. I've been looking at other tanks..... what a palaver.
I'm looking for approximately 65 litres. Don't want to go crazy because weight kills, and I'd like to be functional rather than OTT. I also need to fit the physical tank into the rear load are probably up against the back of the bench seats so the weight is pretty much over the axle. It has to go next to the fridge but not steal all the space, so need something fairly tall and narrow....
The BOAB ones look good, but are the wrong way round for me - too wide and not high enough, and can't be flipped easily. Pricing is not great either.
TEK Tanks are also nice but damn they're expensive. They'll do a custom water tank but that may require a mortgage.
The FrontRunner one is kind of the design I'm looking at but again too pricy.
Then I found these

Which seems perfect. Anyone used them?
I'll also be getting this shower head I think

Any alternatives out there?? Anyone else found a slanted water tank to fit against the seat backs?? If I have to I'll put something in the rear footwell, but that's a bit more convoluted from a safety perspective - don't need a 60 litre tank flying around if worst happens ...
