    Insulation around earthing cables?

    When insulating the rear of the van with recycled loft insulation (similar to this) what's the best thing to do around the rear light cables and and the earthing cable which is attached to the cross beam on each side of the van? Logic says I'm packing insulation arount the whole van which is no...

    Exhaust gas temperature sensor circuit low bank 1 sensor 3 - Chewed

    They are all attracted to the plastic sheathing on modern wiring - well known. It began when the insulation went from oil based to vegetable (soy ) based. Mainly rats, mice, squirrels but no reason why foxes will not have a chomp as well.

    Remove carpet to insulate?

    ...it has already been ply'd, lined with carpet and the flooring has been done. It looks great but there aren't any specific thermal or sound insulation pads stuck to the panels or wheel arches etc. In terms of when I'm driving, the noise of the van is pretty quiet but I'm conscious that the van...

    Ply Floor - Glue Or Screw

    ...is bonded to the metal and will therefore deaden it to an extent. Been doing it this way over 15 years and not once had a problem. I think people overthink insulation in vans, don't forget that half of the van is not insulated (windows). It's your call, I'd rather know the floor is fixed properly

    Any Welsh Members?

    Just purchased a T6 high top, completely off the cuff! Now have insulation and windows installed, now planning electrics! This is my downfall, taking it slow and researching as much as I can. So far, I’m enjoying the challenge

    Realistic time to convert?

    Thanks for that. I would definitely struggle with a lack of indoor space - have a private driveway but not covered area or garage, but think I could get away with insulation, carpeting and electrics without a garage.

    Dan’s Van

    A bit more of an update to share while I am here and catching up. I had ordered Dodo mat sound deadening, some insulation and everything to carpet interior panels when I had my old van but never got around to doing it thankfully. Strangely this van seems to have had a factory fitted insulation...

    Although my camper had insulation installed it was not done with an enthusiastic touch. So I sound-deadened and re-insulated, having to make access panels on the kitchen unit side. I now run the heater a little less in cold weather but i can understand converters not insulating. However, my...
