Hi All, Ian here form Eclipse Campers.

I thought I’d start this post to provide updates to the work we do and what we see in our workshop. This is not a chronological list of works but a sample of what we do.

We are based in Yeovil Somerset and have been trading over 10 years. We undertake all aspects of van conversions, Kombi conversion and manufacture all furniture to our designs, in house on out ATC CNC machine. We can provide full conversions and flat pack kits, one piece floors etc as required and we know these parts work as this is what we use in our conversions.

We can supply new vans and convert to myour requyirements or convert your current van.

We undertake all aspects of van conversions from elevating roofs, upholstery, window fitting, Furniture manufacture, suspension, interior upgrades, external works etc

We have used many parts and manufacturers over the years and have consolidated this list. These include parts of superb quality, with good warranty and also just as important, support from the supplier/manufacturer when needed. We will only use parts which we are happy with and we know will give you years of service.

We are also dealers for a number of high end companies as listed below (not an exhaustive list):
  • REVO authorised Dealer

This T6 conversion was designed to allow the customers to fit mountain bikes in the rear while having a removable POD (fitted to Kombi mounts) and keeping the Kombi seats. It’s had full insulation, sound deadening, lining, electrical system and bespoke furniture made to suit.

Cheers

Fitting the awesome ST-X kit to this T6 SWB, more pics to follow after we have completed the wiring, solar and diesel heater upgrade. These coil overs are sure to transform the van.

This is not T6 related as such but an a recent idea we had for hanging your MTB in the garage. Putting our CNC to use in a non-furniture way. This is Birch ply with HPL finish and is very strong and actually designed for the soon to arrive Cube E-MTB.
