What Have You Done To Your Van Today?

[Donk]

Fitted the switchable Autobeam front fog lights courtesy of @Dellmassive thread forcing me to spend money on my van.

I stripped the old burnt stinky carpet off the woodwork from my old van and then covered it in new carpet for my new van! (yet to arrive). My lovely girlfriend also picked up a parcel from the post office for me (again stuff for the van I don't have yet).

I added some lovely wind deflectors . .. love them ..

Yup that's the ones.. watch the review easy to fit.

Have you watched the side window one? How the eff he finished the job with 10 digits using a jig saw like that I've no idea. Must be the worst job I've seen. And he seems to be sponsored as well

I just watched it, scary! I think the sponsorship is more affiliate advertising, he will get paid per use of his unique code. You'd at least cut out the mistakes from the video, cutting the trim too short and the window being caught by the wind

I’m quite please with the look so far. Just the grills and headlights to sort now.

Were did you purchase the front end splitter? Looks smart

Front Matt black badge fitted....oops cracked the black plastic plate underneath, incredibly brittle.
Rear yet to be done when the rain calms down a bit.

....and needs a bloody good clean!

LED rear lights went in today. That’s front and rear LED retrofits complete. Also swapped my gloss black grill with chrome strip for an all gloss black one. Just need a gloss black badge now.

Thanks to @T6180 for the lights and @Eddie Sutherland for the pin configurations.

Genius!

Are these made from the standard red/blue/white footwell light adapted to use two colours or totally custom?

 

[cgtmiles]

I fitted the Saxoboys ambient overhead lights, looks great and footwell lights from travelin lite (I should have got them from saxoboy too then the instruction would have been correct!)

 

[sparkzer]

I gotta fit my own 1st!...the whites are very bright, but I've took a stab in the dark (pardon the pun!) with how 'ambient' the reds need to be. there may be some fine tuning the design yet!

Genius!

Custom, well white LED lights modified to include some 4 reds in the cluster...largely made up with bits i had laying about so the cost was minimal.

I've got to rummage about and see if i can lay my hands on the Passat light he uses and will likely stick one in mine also....dont wanna go crazy tho or it might begin to look like an Amsterdam window at night!

Finished the changeover to all black dash, so glad to see the back of the 2 tone. Think I need a gloss black gear surround now.

It was from eBay and £100. Its a badged one, but comes without a badge if that makes sense! I was surprised by the quality, it was much better than I expected.

That looks great @kiter, any chance of the part numbers for this? I've got them for the standard dash but not the comfort. Did you use Shuttle or Caravelle door cards? just curious about the colour match.

 

[fezza68]
