I thought it was about time I put together a thread on my T6 journey from buying a kombi to converting and enjoying a bus that meets our various needs as a family.
Words and pictures to follow...
Just wondering if there's anything off the shelf to mount a bike to, that fits in the California rails? Or is it a case of getting the appropriate rail fixings/tee bolts (where from?) and getting something fabricated up?
I was thinking ideally front wheel off and a sliding clamp that bolts...
I've been on the hunt for a pair of the elusive (and apparently made of gold-plated unicorn poo, if Ebay is to be believed) Caravelle middle row swivel seats to install in my Kombi.
A pair have popped up for about a grand, and they look to be in decent nick. However, despite the initial advert...
Is anyone using Karndean flooring (or Karndean style) in their van?
I've noticed quite a few convertors are using it now and it does look good.
Any pros/cons?
How hard wearing is it?
Do you bond it to the ply when laying it?
Cheers.
Hi. I’m looking to fit a rock and roll bed, currently I’ve got two seats and a table on sliding rails. Does anyone know if there is a rock and roll bed that will slot into existing tracks on floor? Thanks for any help or pointers
Looking at the highline chrome tie down loops in the floor they look pretty weak.. Will The rings from a transporter bolt in?
I Have to transport a motorbike.
Hi!
We have a blank canvas and are discussing the pros and cons of fitting floor rails so we can move the seat/bed forward and back. We've heard they're a real hassle to fit and we want to know whether there's an easier product to fit or even if they are worth the hassle? Any recommendations?
When installing Cali single rails in a kombi with single left sliding door, what thickness floor matches the rail height? I was looking to cover the ply with a coin rubber pattern like the California has. E.g Black ROUND STUDDED Penny Van Garage Workshop Rubber Flooring Matting 1.5m x 3mm |...
Does anyone have an Autoglide bed?
been looking and they look a decent bit of kit, open to other recommendations
looking to mount it on a Koller fully bonded floor
Thanks
After months of saving we finally chose a base van to convert into our dream camper van. We picked it up Saturday and already have it booked in for windows roof and lining next week . Our converter says he’l send us picture update every step of the way.
We’re hoping to use this page as a way...
Hi anyone with lwb caravelle rails able to pop a cover off the back of their Center double rail and share a part number with me please? It would be much appreciated.
Evening all , currently running a Kombi but want to convert to Cali rails and sliding bench that folds into bed , could you recommend me the best place for this, and if anyone has a rough idea of cost that would be great
Just fitted the rear load sliding tray into the caravelle rails.
Very impressed how it fits with the multiflex board.
Very sturdy bit of kit, well currently got it extended while im sitting on it swinging me legs and cider beside me.
Hopfully no more scratched rear bumper and clambering in the...
So initially when I realised I needed a van, I was looking at Californias but the price and lead time put me off. I bided my time whilst coming to the end of the term on my C-Class PCP deal and thought about the options. In the end I decided the best option was a nearly new Highline Kombi which...
I've just received some Unwin Rails to fit my RnR bed. Has anyone fitted these and has any pointers?
Happy with fitting the brackets to the bed and the rails should be ok, as long as they miss everything vital underneath.
Having fitted a Cali bed I'm now looking at furniture. Bearing in mind the floor has to be raised 26mm (Excluding the 9mm batten glued to the floor) to accommodate the rails and the bed is 1200mm wide. Does this affect the furniture options? I'm considering the Evo 7.4.
What have other owner...
I have finally got round to the job of getting my wing mirrors painted. Its a bit of a PITA to get it all arranged, and get them off and sent for paint but there all back on and working now. Reversed the colours on the mirror cases but i also had a set of gloss black bottom covers to put on if a...
Hi All,
Getting close to ordering a Kombi now petrol is available. One question, I plan to make the van as versatile as possible by installing caravelle rails so the passenger / load area is quickly adjustable.
Can anyone tell me if the rails are compatible with the standard three seat kombi...
