There is lot of good advice here ( particularly from Tentz ) but I think we have language and safety problems.
Would it not be safer to take everything to local caravan dealers for advice ? Most of them are pretty knowledgeable.

For those who suggested to swap the existing pigtails for butane clip-on pigtails, what happens with the regulator?
The one in that picture appears to be a propane only regulator.
I would have thought it would have been easier for the OP to swap the 7kg butane bottles for 6kg propane bottles?

Is there any writing on the red regulator?
I'm just wondering if it will actually work with butane (if you wanted to do this). There should be a reading on it like 30mbar or 37mbar... What does it say?

In fact using the bottle top regulator will be your cheapest option. You just connect it directly with a length of rubber gas pipe & jubilee clips to where the thin pipe from your bulkhead regulator connects at the bottom end.
