Internal Shelving And Lighting Upgrade

[Dantheman6106]

So had a good day on the van today have fitted the rear bulkhead behind the seats so I could then fit the rear shelving and also upgraded the interior lighting to brighten it up in the back a bit, just got to get some rubber lining for the shelving and add a few extras bits and then I can start swapping all the tools over

looks smart, wheres the shelving from?

 

[Dantheman6106]

Shelving came from Vanrack online , nice quality and all bolted so no screws . Has to trim some of the panels slightly as it’s a tight fit with the bulkhead and going to order a couple of drawers for it

 

[josh]

ok is that van rack online on ebay? i just searched on google and quite a few came up?

 

[Dantheman6106]

Yes they are on EBay under creganconceptsltd

Or this is the website to see their full range - www.vanrack.co.uk

like the shelving, I had seen the stuff prior - looking at putting it in my swb kombi when it arrives. thinking of eventually carpet lining mine as well. do you think the shelving would work with that? want a work/life van. also what did you do for the lighting?

cheers

 

[Dantheman6106]

Yes the shelving should work with carpet lining it would be worth marking where the fixing points are before you carpet as the shelving fixes with L brackets onto the horizontal bars

The lighting is just 12v LED strip in an aluminium profile that we use for domestic LED lighting

ok cool. thanks. Shame they don't do the swb kombi shelving in hexaboard

 

[Dantheman6106]

Give them a call as they make it to order so I am sure they will do it for you, they have stopped using the black hexaboard and have started using grey now

 

[KevinD]

Yeah not sure of the grey, gonna go standard ply. thanks will post when I get the van.

Finally got round to swapping everything over from the T5 into the Kombi today , just about managed to squeeze everything in and still got room for 4 mountain bikes down the middle

Nice one looks good!
I did similar to my T6 but it wasn’t long before I retired it from daily duty and went full camper, I have a caddy now as the work horse

 

[Dantheman6106]

Yes the end game will be camper in a few years time , we have some Caddy maxis and they are great vans too

How much did it cost to rack your t6 kombi out looks well smart! That’s exactly what I’m hoping to do in the next couple months
