What Have You Done To Your Van Today?

Bit more on the camper setup today, the parts I've been waiting on finally arrived so I could get the final test assembly done!

Got the lids on the back section, with locking multi point stays, which will enable us to set it up as a seat/sofa using the mattress, facing out the back of the van :cool: The stay's I have used have 12 different locking points, so we can adjust the angle of the back to exactly how we want it!

Also got the evo catches fitted just to check fitment... all good!

Cheers bud, hoping to do final fitting this week! Got to fit all my electrics first, but im hoping that will only take a day or 2!
 
This looks great! where are these chrome parts from? thanks
Thank you! It’s a genuine Caravelle upper grille and lower chrome inserts. Available directly from VW or keep your eye out on here or any well known online auction websites
 
Very nice. I see you have roof bars fitted as well. May I ask how the Thule fits please? Is it using the same fixings as the roof bars or some other way?
So I have the multi rails which both the roof bars and Thule fits onto perfectly, they use the same type of fixings

Took off a perfectly good Vw part:

And fitted a better designed Skoda part:

25 years ago, everyone would have laughed at you if you “modified and improved a vehicle” with a Skoda part.
How times have changed!!
 
Hand polished the T6 today which was hard work in the sunshine, had a bit of a sweat on :thumbsup:
the paintwork needs looking at its in poor condition in places especially passenger side. But overall it polished up nicely.
getting re mapped tomorrow
 
Took the T6 to Veew services today to it remapped and find out what’s up with the parking sensors, apparently a break in the wiring which has been rectified and had it re mapped from 140 to 180 happy days.
