I didn’t actually count if I’m being totally honest, but I reckon between 4 & 5 sheets per door. I’ll need maybe 3 more to do behind the speaker on each door when it comes to it though.
I wasn’t convinced of the difference straight after doing it yesterday, but after clocking more substantial miles today, I’m really pleased with the result actually.

Up-plate arrived today from SVTech. Have just stuck the V5 and certificate in the post to DVLA and waiting for the rain to stop then I'll go and stick my nice new plate on the van! Peace of mind from not being overweight so easily now for £336 Inc Vat. Super quick and easy. 2800kg to 3000kg maximum weight with no modification required. The converters (Campervan Factory, Tewkesbury) had used high load rated wheels and tyres as standard.
Fitted the £55 splitter that I ordered less than 24 hours before delivery!
Pretty happy with the front of the van now. Except for perhaps the mixture of matte and gloss plastics. Oh and some THQ V3s would be nice too. Ahem.
I go to a place in Wigan who did my fake black glass on the back a couple of years ago

I didn't get the factory sliders due to the well documented leaking issues but found last summer that the van just got too hot sometimes - have a tailgate stay which helps but not always convenient
Are those the camper glass ones?

They look a lot better than the alternative version

If I was converting a van I'd 100% go for these over any sliding window, makes much more sense.

How are these from a security viewpoint @Strettyp? I presume you're happy that they can't be easily overcome (well... at least no easier than any other attack point)?
They do look really good!
Often I think these type of motorhome windows can make a camper look like a prison van but this looks better than my standard window.

I'm not sure - I probably wouldn't as it feels like it might stress the unit
The guy who installed said I could pretend to be doing speed checks if I parked in a bridge over a motorway
Imagine the chaos you'd cause in a white van, parked up on a motorway overpass, with one window wide open...
For the full effect you'd want the rear safari window too
Or you could pretend to be selling burgers.
