Caravelle rear Headlining to Kombi Van - Securing brackets positions

[jaroslav.tomandl]

Hi guys, I'm currently working on installing the interior from a T6 caravelle to a T6 kombi.
I ordered securing brackets, but there are no holes in my kombi's body ready for installing them. Have any of you solved this problem? Is there anyone who has just had the headliner removed and could take a picture of the exact position of the securing brackets? Perfect would be for the long version, but the short version will help too. Thank you very much. JT

I don’t know the answer, but do know @studley Glass converted his van to Caravelle spec, even though it had no rear windows.

Click on the Caravelle Conversion tag at the top and you’ll see some threads that may help.
Keep us posted - we love photos

Hello, one way is to somehow attach the Headliner, and mark these holes where these handles should be on the frame.. Can You please tell, what brackets need for 3rd row, and what brackets for the 4th row? if we look at Your photo with 3 encircled handles - there is 3 choices (21, 25, 29) - which is for which row? Do you know the part numbers of the seatbelt for the 4th row - is it the same as for 3rd row only without that length extender at the roof? Do You have also a wind tube part number, that connects rear blower with headliner wind collector? Thanks

Btw, within a few days, i plan to remove rear headliner for my T6 Caravelle Long, 2sliding doors (EU) service car, only half of the rear original headliner.. so no 3rd and 4th row handles, but only 1st and 2nd row - roof handles. i can take measurements of the 2nd row handle brackets. i think, you can then calculate distance from it to the next ones (if measuring Headliner holes). i plan to install 4th row triple seat..

Just removed roof headliner (7E3867499BE6K8), btw both side rubbers around the door tops needs to pull out from their places, then headliner should be pushed in the direction to the back, then it slides out from the clips. These are roof handles at the center of 2x sliding doors for T6 Long Caravelle, part numbers (7H5858688A and 7H858687A). At other places they are different. Bracket arching are centered to the cross member, and bottom edge are 29mm lower. They are welded at the both sides. i plan to install other two pairs of these handles. i have a full size lining, with handle cuttings, where i can measure distances for next handles.
