day van

Looking for inspiration and ingenious ideas to make a great day van. Own a shuttle so particularly interested in any shuttle ideas but keen to see all vans and how you’ve made them your own. Will upload some pics with how I’m getting on

Hi all, on the road down converting my shuttle to day van and was looking for some lighting advice. Was thinking about running my rear lights and sockets off the leisure battery (under the drivers with diesel heater) and replacing the bulbs to LEDs. With there being so many lights and sockets...

We bought a 2016 panel van a few months ago with a view to using it as a day van and for occasional camping trips for the wife and I, along with our daughter. We have had side windows fitted and the rear is now "de-vanned" and fully insulated and carpet lined. Having used it as much as we were...

Hoping folk can give me some advice please. I am wondering if I should get a LWB shuttle or a LWB T6 Kombi/crew van to convert into an overnight van but I’m not sure which would give me more issues or cost more ! ( it’s likely I will get a company to do for me!) My plans are to have the...

Any advice from those that have done similar would be great! Probably a relatively common one, I'm the proud new owner of a t5.1 2014 LWB DSG shuttle which I'll be putting a simple conversion in. I need 6 seats and want to keep it van-able for bikes, carrying loads etc... Thinking some kind of...

Evening! So after fiddling a lot with the van this year its time to start prepping properly for day van usage :thumbsup: I'm still reading a lot at the moment to work out my plans of what to do and what to avoid but while I do that I thought I'd put something on here... So my question is...

hello I would like to use my t6 swb panel van to sleep in, I intend to insulate and line and use a tailgate standoff. I need to keep the bulkhead in, van has 1 side door and proposed bed will effectively be a frame with a matress on top and storage underneath. Has anyone done this ? Is...

Picked up from the converter yesterday - Very happy with the finish! Might add a kitchen pod at some point...

I'm in the process of planning my panel van to day van conversion and have been looking at a few storage options. One thing I am considering is a single storage cupboard over one of the wheel arches in the rear. Something like this Has anyone gone down this route?

Hi guys, I'm thinking of buying this T6 day van. It's a great van but not much available space due to the full width RIB bed. Was thinking of a small kitchen pod housing a fridge and burner (no sink). Any suggestions or bright ideas?

Hi All, What's the best option out of T32 & T30 for a general day van ? Understand that the T32 has a higher load capacity but is it overkill for what I need as it will never be fully loaded. Would the ride be too harsh ? Regards

When camping I put a fold up fishing bed in mine. It’s really comfortable but takes up loads of room. I end up with all my stuff all over the place. I can’t build anything permanent as I need to be able to empty the van at a moments notice. So was wondering what other non camper van owners do.

Hi all, just wondering if anyone knows how insurance companies will class a day van, basically everything a normal camper has apart from a sink and Hob and no water tank or gas?? Thanks again.
