Just finishing installing 2 x 110Ah LiFePo4 batteries and I want to disable the OEM charger. The charger is hidden behind the trim and is not easy to access so I believe removing one of theses green 30A fuses should do the job, but which one?

Hi all After many hours research and going around in circles(!) I am very close to buying a VW California Beach. It would be an easier sell to my other half if I can store the van in our garage (we are short on driveway space). I know I'm okay on the length of the van but could anyone tell me...

I want to upgrade the speakers in my beach, which has the 6 speaker Composition media. I was intending on fitting the Etons in the front. What size are the rear speakers so I could order some coaxials to fit?

Is it possible to beef the electric tailgate up so it can carry more weight? I’ve retro fitted the Cali tailgate panel with the chair storage inside, and the tailgate can’t hold the extra weight.

Is anyone interested in this? I'm sorting through many old VW documents and this one has come to light. Note that although the front cover says that there is a price list it must have been a lose sheet as it's not with it now. £5:00 including postage within the UK - beyond please ask. PM me...

So a quick question for those that have a seat on rails ie. California etc and carry a lot of stuff for camping..... Once you have packed the van and move the seat into the travelling position (ie. up to the front seats) have you anything in place to stop all the stuff sliding forwards into the...

Hi all, Im trying to find the part number for the small rectangle panel in the image but without the sun roof controller in, so just a plain panel. Its from a T5 Kombi, but also similar in shuttle. We have not got another van here with the same headlining to check. Thanks for your help. Cheers

Hello! Well, been lurking on here for a couple of months, sold my T5.1 Cailfornia SE in October last year and replaced it with a 2019 T6 California Ocean. Great forum, enjoying reading up on stuff and seeing what others have been up to! Thanks. #TeamTwoTone

Morning all - can anyone tell me what chassis the T6 California would be built on so I know what coilovers I need? I think the Beach is based on a T30 but not 100% sure! do you need to have adaptive cruise recalibrated after lowering? Also, I’d there something I read about LED headlights...

As title says, who can recommend a decent set of seat covers. VW rep said they haven't got part numbers for T6 ones yet. Slightly different he says including different headrest sizes. Had Vw ones in my T5 so I know they fit well. I don't want anything like the GTE leather type, just a stylish...

Evening All. I have of course seen the VanShade pods and Swellshade blinds. The later looks a little unfinished on the edges to me. I was thinking, does anyone know for a roller type blind a bit like the VW jobs that go into the doorcard? I just wondered as I closed the blinds in my kitchen this...

I've just taken delivery of the DC-DC charger and removed the passenger seat to see where it could be installed. There doesn't appear to be enough space under the seat and I was wondering if anyone had managed to fit this in a Beach?

Hi - I couldn't find answers to these questions but apologies if it's covered elsewhere. My wife and I have a 20-month old and we've decided to upgrade our beloved 2007 barn door 2.5 TDi T5 conversion to a new or nearly new (2019/8 plate) California Ocean. I'm looking for advice in three areas...

Well I have sold my California Beach and now for the first time since I learned to drive I do not own a car. So why di I get rid of it. Thing is it was sat around in my drive not being used. SInce I had it serviced in Jan I drove around 3000 miles I decided when the road tax came through it was...

Hi, Anyone have a ruff idea of how much the VW T6 California b post with air vents, driver's step with the vent cost. And the mount and ducting for a night heater cost ? Regards S

Was at the Motorhome Show at the NEC yesterday and popped in at the VW stand ... (Hope I have this next bits right, sure I'll be corrected if not, info comes from internet searches and speaking to someone on the VW stand) The California 6.1 is available in 3 variants: Ocean, Coast and Beach. I...

I wouldn’t mind hearing people's preferred choice of Roofs and Beds. I will probably be going for mine after Christmas so gonna start doing some research. I have been advised SCA is one of the best and we'll built. I like the look of HiLo roofs but don't like the way they head clearance is...

Has anybody retrofitted the Cali style water filler connection plate and how difficult was the install to pipe to the onboard water tank , where can the external connection plate be bought.

The awning of my VW Multivan T6 camper is damaged. I need to replace one springarm and one endplate. A sticker inside my awnings identifies it as a Thule product. So, VW actually installes Thule awnings on its T6 vans. However, VW doesn't sell parts for the awning. One can only purchase a...
