Reimo rain gutter, courtesy of Kiravans. I had some water fall on the door the other day, while the window was open. Wind deflectors kept it from going inside, but it landed on the door sill. Had to trim around the roof hinge, and its not quite straight (would have been better off installing with the door shut). Looks as though it should do the job though.
 
I made a soft close drawer unit for under the rear twin Kombi seat.
Not the most straight forward job for a non joiner, but I was rather impressed with my handy work.
I also ran out of carpet so I had to two tone it.
Just need an idea for a smart looking flat strap kinda handle to suit the box now.
Excuse the dirty floor.

Finally finished putting the front back together with the gloss grills and fog surrounds, really pleased with the look, for anyone thinking about it, just do it, looks so much cleaner! :cool:

Had Steve at @CRS Performance install the Koni/H&R Coilover kit to my camper and a mates T5.
Top class service from Steve and crew who knows his onions and was a true professional!
Absoloutely chuffed with the results. Perfect drop with more if needs be with comfort and handling being superb. Thanks again. Would thoroughly recommend!
Will be listing a set of VW 30mm lowering springs in next few days if anyone's interested.
 
So need to be doing this, took my bone shaker for a drive today. Even the missus agrees. Time to start saving.

Roughly how much? I have B14`s bought off another member, but for the milage I do whilst it looks great it is a bit harsh!

I ended up using a local bodyshop in Winterbourne recommended by a neighbour. Was fed up of waiting for Dingmaster, etc to get back to me.
 
Today, we went out for a wee drive in Harvey (about 15 minutes to do the DPF thing). Discovered that weird, really annoying squeaky noise that has been plaguing me on my way to/from work is....

.... the fridge on vent!!

So... fridge was closed when we were driving. Problem solved. Hooray!!
:D
 
Got up 0630 ( mad) cleaned the van and set up in the sun the solar panels. 2 x 150 ( not quite the right angle ) and sat and tested the Kenwood remote..............
Now if someone can open up the UK for camping .......Happy Days
