Started to fit solar panels to the roof after I managed to get some low profile cross bars from here. Don't think I'm going to drill a hole in the roof for the cables (not got big enough balls) but just plug in and hang loose when being used.

Hi, really tempted to copy your solar panels. Two questions, have you noticed any noise from the panels whilst driving and what's it done to the height of the van? One more, which roof do you have? Cheers for any help.

No noise whilst driving and just done long runs at high speed down the M5. Panels sit flush with top of roof bars so no increase in height. Fitted to HiLo roof.
 
Mmmm... grill change / interior revamp? Could be an extreme one then?
treat me as your local recycling centre:D
You dont need anything on your t6 its all sorted still got the lush bamboo green ?
I've had full caravelle side panels,well full kit sat in storage since 2018 needs using it owes me nothing as sold door cards and roof lining .
I changed the grill back over this morning not keen on the black stick wigh oem triple chrome
 
Yes you’re exactly right 7 seats all with the seatbelt - back two with isofix as well

Set up works well for a family set up.


Liking that conversion as it looks like you've got 7 seating positions as well as a camper which has got to be more multi purpose ie. kids can bring a mate for a day out or transport other family members when you've got family staying.:thumbsup:

Yup, I love Bamboo green :)
The Caravelle grill looks so much more classy, especially with the LED’s.
My Caravelle grill is undergoing an EHU in the grill badge mod @ the mo :oops:
 
Very nice you doing the EHU mode yourself ?
Yes, I started with perspex templates but found it’s too brittle. I’ve redone in 5mm plastic now.
I’m ready for the 1st fix now but need some countersunk SS M4’s. The whole mod needs to be robust enough to cope with the plugging / unplugging.
