Roof Lining / Ply Or Alternative

[craigblues]

Hi All,

My new van is due within the next two weeks, YAY! Therefore work is due to begin.

I've done a few searches but can't find how people are fitting roof linings, has anyone found a good way? I like the idea of no clips seen, but are people using ply? If so what thickness? Purchased already cut or cuting them selves.

Thanks in advance.

We had the dealer fit the ply lining kit from new.

We then bought 4way stretch carpet and spray glue online.

We removed one panel at a time carpeted it and replaced it.

We chose a gark grey for the side walls and a lot grey for the roof.....while the roof was down we fitted some LED lights from the T6 Shop.

We just used the original fixings.....not to sure about hidden ones.

Yes... the guys ply lined the floor and sides.


The roof had the original grey van-panels. So we took them down and carpeted them in light grey..... then added some extra lights in the back..

The last van we done dark grey on the roof and it was too dark....!


Works great and looks a charm. =)

Do you plan on keeping bulkhead in ??

 

[Dellmassive]

If you referring to me. Then yes.

I need it as i use the van for work.

So need the bulkhead... you can see from the pics I've carpeted it in dark grey. Same as side panels.

I removed my bulkhead and found the rattling with origanal fitted ply/hardboard lining too much
So ripped the lot out and redone
