What Have You Done To Your Van Today?

[tommy_t6.1]

They look nice, what are they from ?

These are out of an Audi. They came in the RS4, RS3, S3, Golf GTI/R.

 

[NorthernT6]

Amazing... Where are the side pods from. Such a great idea

Homemade just a bit of ply carpeted,

 

[lolope96]

Got all the 12v ready to go.
- LED lights
- USBs
- 12v connectors ( fridge, water tank, boiler )

 

[Steved55]

I’ve fitted a Kirivans drivers seat rear panel which hasnt such a deap indentaction, and I’ve wired in a switch to turn the power on and off to my newly installed diesel heater, I know about letting the heater to cool down before I switch it off.
I've also installed a carbon monoxide detector to the van ceiling.

Please check and confirm, but my understanding is CO is heavier than air so your monitor needs to be low down ideally?

Had a weather window so washed her, then booked her in for a service and mot at Lookers VW Middlesbrough and a cambelt and coolant pump at my local independent the day after.

Can I suggest you add a grommit here:

You can slit an old bit of cable sheathing and slot it round and a dab of glue..

 

[ginkster]

Got it weighed! Now need to go back with it fully loaded to see what the total is and what the distribution is like.

For anyone in the Harrogate/Ripon area I can recommend the weighbridge I used at Melmerby. Dead easy and only £10.

 

[Pedro20001]

Added a USB charge point to the newly fittedView attachment 185676 comfort dash

Wish they did something for the t6.1, it's very rough and ready!

New front So Low air struts today by Lowdown Transporters.

 

[DaveCrampton]

Not what I have done, but what I need to do.

Washed my Shuttle on Sunday.
Monday my other half found her car had a warning light for tire pressure, so she took my van to college.

Now I need to wash the van again!!

I reset the tire pressure indicator on the dash and it hasn't returned...

Reason for the swap ?
I did the compressors swap from viar444s to solow
What a difference...

That was an expensive break in the weather!

 

[Sackmycook]

That was an expensive break in the weather!

Not as bad as it could have been ; service and mot already paid for (VW All in scheme) and local garage doing the belt and pump for 300 notes less than the Stealer

What a difference...

Passenger side strut damage incurred when I hit a 10cm deep pothole. An expensive repair.

The finished stance is cool as feck.

 

[Dkdaz]

Dropped the van off to Carefree Campers for side windows, sound deadening & insulation, front swivel seat base and sliding rock and roll bed.

 

[Samro]

Cut this spring which unbelievably got embedded in my tyre!

God knows how a spring can wind its way into a tyre multiple times....... so much so, that it couldn't be removed without snipping each ring with side cutters and removing one ring at a time! Even then, it was tough as hell to pull out each section of wire!

Best choice or rims also

Best choice or rims also

Not sure that rubber would fair so well with the "spring debris" though!
