Hello,

I finally took the plunge last week and have been working through the basics.

The plan is to be a functional day Van with the ability for weekend camping when needed.

The build will be
20" Navis Wheels
SOLOW NSL Suspension with new top mounts
Kombi Seats
Stitches and Steel Kombi Short floor
Full lining and repurpose the second battery to be a leisure
GTD Seats
Cruise Control Retrofit
Stereo Upgrade with reversing cam.

Cleaned the inside and made it ready for the build.

My first question is how do you remove these?

They don't seem to unscrew from the outside. So I am assuming its a case of removing from the inside and they just "fall off"
I assume one is ex-AA Radio, one is a Sat receiver but the third?

The next question please, is about parts

What is the plastic insert part code for here?

The last questions for today.

What is the part code for a full-length rubber floor with holes for the front Kombi seats?
Where is the best/cheapest place to buy the Kombi inserts and belts, please?


Thank you.

Any pre-advice or stuff I should do but haven't thought of, graciously received.

Aerials/Antennae just unbolt from inside, then I chased the cables and removed.

Not sure on part code for the step, but most go for a deeper kombi step due to adding flooring (available from most stores like VW T5 Kombi Step - T6 Models - Volkswagen Accessories | THQ).

Great vans to convert.
