Actually look a big improvement over standard ... which i have too
Been thinking of doing similar for a while as i can't decide on the right alloys / tyres for the T32 although I'm very close
Mines a 50mm drop so poss painted with spacers so there not so lost in the arches may look good

Thats exactly what I plan on doing on my Mojave van. Looks stunning.

Just been into my local wheel refurbishing establishment and they have quoted £268 Inc vat and wheel balancing etc..
That seems about right, tyres on and off etc etc
Fitting the wing mirror caps is a pita, I challenge anybody not to break a clip or 2 doing it.
The whole vehicle has a fine layer of limestone dust on it, our farm track and yard are bone dry and very dusty
Still thinking about tyres, 235/55/17 just look too small to me. May consider these as summer rubber

Yes it is - total and utter.
These guys are just around the corner from me, and well recommended.
Clim-air, very pleased with them. We have a big dog cage in the back, so very handy for venting
Pretty pleased with the minor make over
I personally didnt like the screw on clip for base of deflector at the wing mirror, and also liked the idea of the Heko clips, pleased with choice so far.. have run Climair on other cars no probs either.. pays your money etc...
liking the black mirrors, thought it would be 100% black for Piano black
Good looking T you have there @chriscroft
Yep, it was 100% black & 2K LacquerI personally didnt like the screw on clip for base of deflector at the wing mirror, and also liked the idea of the Heko clips, pleased with choice so far.. have run Climair on other cars no probs either.. pays your money etc...

Nearly impossible getting the top cover off without breaking some of the clips that either connect it to the body of mirror or the under side black surround.
I followed the very useful T6 Forum guide, but hey ho
Not sure I could put the old Mojave ones back on, even if I want to; without some silicon/panel adhesive.
Looks great @chriscroft !
These def look much better over standard, but the one main reason for changing the Devonports for me was how lost they are in the arches after lowering 50mm
so before i do change i want to give the colour change a go as i have the wheels so makes sense
Has anyone kept these wheels with a 50mm drop and added spacers at all?
If so help me chose the right ones pretty please
