What Have You Done To Your Van Today?

[Texxaco]

Fitted my HD Alpine rear camera today. Started well until I realised I had fitted the cable with the front connector at the rear. Gutted.
Nothing to do but remove the cable and start afresh, one hour wasted.
Eventually re routed the cable, by removing one of the connectors to be able to get it through the tailgate rubber connector, the easiest part.

It’s fitted now, after I had cut one of the 4 micro cables by accident. Fixed it... eventually.

Task for tomorrow is to set it up on the tailgate and check all is well.

Will post some pics of the 4 views I now have access to

Sweet, cheers for the link. I bought some from vanstyle but I don’t like the look of how they attach, these look a lot more sleek

I didn't want anything that involved drilling into any part of the bodywork. These just use the existing fixing points for the wheel arch liners. They come with additional fixings but no instructions. For the front pair I used one of the supplied self tappers into the arch liner through one of the additional holes in the flap. This makes them much more secure and stable and is out of sight.

Thanks for the advice, they’re coming Monday so I’ll see how I get on

The door seals are strangely satisfying arn't they , done mine a few weeks back and I think it starts to sound even better after they've got a bit softer.

For under £20 it's got to be one of the best value for money and satisfying as you say.

I got mine to do next week.......tbh i'm not looking forward to it at all !!!



Don't suppose you have taken any pics that may help me?

You don't have to take the glass out if you don't want to, just release it from the mechanism and pull it to the top and tape it while you do the job. @Pewt https://www.t6forum.com/threads/gui...r-assembly-from-the-front-door-of-a-t6.22979/

Will take the ply up later and put down insulation before putting it back and laying top layer tomorrow.

Looking good! What made you go with Stealth? Been looking for a pop top for my T6, and they seem pretty good... Prime or Bug? Could let me know who fitted it? Thanks Rob
