What Have You Done To Your Van Today?

[Jayjmac]

Done then and they do make a massive difference. I will find the pics and post them here.

What did you do with all the other beige bits.. like the light, handles and seatbelts?

 

[Texxaco]

Here you go.

Suede covered the A pillars, very pleased with the results. SWMBO then said can you cover the doors now. Omg the all clear to go suede mad in the van

B pillars this afternoon although they don’t look as easy as the A pillars.

Took them off, roughed them up , plastic undercoat then Matt black. All from Halfords.

 

[Texxaco]

I still have the rear seat belt holders to do, missed them.

Waiting on magnets then fitting these to. Plus cup holders for the rear passengers and USB points.

Here you go.

Try this link, really good stuff and doesn’t cost the Earth. I got suede rather than leather. Looks the nuts.
Pillar trims

SWMBO has asked me if I can do the doors now. Happy days

Cheers for the link. I’m having a company do the trimming as I can’t be dealing with all that spraying and glueing.

Ah it was really easy and quite pleasing when it’s done and back in place.

Door cars next, might just do the top of them though. The wife’s idea.

Completed.. missing the glove box as it’s not the right one! I’ve got the back part just need the actual pull down bit. Then for the aggro of moving the lock to the new one.

I got them all from VW parts at my local centre. Really helpful chap. Not as expensive as I was expecting.

New door cards mate. Direct from VW. You can get fancy inserts and fabric but I just went standard black

Can’t believe you don’t like that beige

 

[RyanGerry]

Can’t believe you don’t like that beige

Ha ha, it’s growing on me!!!
It’s the only thing at the moment that lets me down. That and the cab lining, the rest is all black....

 

[Andysmee]

I think I've fitted everything I've bought...almost. I have a shiny instrument surround and a couple of decals, and the other mirror puddle light, but...
