Blinking extension sides for my little Erde 122 trailer which i may add we only just bought recently.

We've bought so much new stuff lately we couldn't get it all in the roofbox, trailer and the boot of my Ford Focus so we've had to purchase these extension sides, OH isn't too pleased ................................... thinks i'll try taking the kitchen sink etc with me soon   

Has anyone else had to do this??

Because of where we store our trailer, the high sides would have been a problem. Following advice from this site I made up some "greedy boards" from 3/8" ply. A single 8' x 4' sheet allowed me to increase the height of the sides by more than a foot. With these when on site they all collapse in to the body of the trailer.
