What Have You Done To Your Van Today?

[ginkster]

Fitted a ‘carbon’ rear bumper protector. Having carbon on the van must make it much faster…!

Got it from Carmats4u having seen them recommended by someone else on the forum recently (tailgate to bumper gap thread maybe??).

Went on pretty easily, but needed a bit of hairdryer use (don’t tell Mrs G!) as it is rather chilly today. They even included a fitting kit for free

Fitted T6 power folding wing mirrors proud of my weekends work. Showed 8yr old son, "boring"

 

[CAB]

Changed batteries in the smoke and CO detectors.

It's all go around here, I tell you.

Removed our Kiravans sliding door store to start investigating an intermittent door lock fault.
Managed to do it without destroying the fixings too

Renamed campervan to Yeti as I bought a new Yeti mug and it came with a stick on label

Good luck @Jim Rey beware.... The mugs are addictive. I now have 4 various sizes and styles. Best mug I've had 20 Oz rambler. Keeps coffee piping hot. Flask with 360 hotshot lid great. Two are same colour as yours.

Stripped the 2 front door cards and then sound deadened the panels, added some sound proofing to the back of the trim and then fitted the Alpine SPC-106T61 speakers and Tweeters. Actually wasn't too bad to do, and I'm no expert Just left to put one of the door cards back on, I broke some of the clips taking it off, so had to order some replacements that are coming tomorrow.

Hi Andy it’s Chris a fellow camper king owner, it seem like I am following your upgrades and know after sound proofing the doors I am looking to fit some speaker. I did notice a big difference this makes to the sound even with the standard set-up. Is this worth 300 pounds.

New jazzy painted calipers for me today.
Yellowyorangygold is the official colour I think

[MK2Golf24v]

Swapped in a rear T32 ARB onto my T28 Camper. Nice OEM upgrade, and “free” as they came off my Sportline when I fitted H&R’s.

Front soon when uprated droplinks arrive.

 

[t6blo]

Fitted my spoiler (Leighton vans) - break from the norm, I haven’t painted it yet as it is too cold and I also drilled 2 holes in the tailgate to bolt it as well as stick it down after the spoiler on my previous van came off twice Will mask up and spray it in the warmer weather.

Also fitted some ignition live fed ambient lights to match the footwells.

 

[Loz]

Washed it!

 

[Smr72]

@Pewt are those Akebono Audi calipers if so what size disc and whose caliper brackets did you use to get them to fit?

 

[dubber36]

Washed mine too. Windows, wax and interior tomorrow ready for sale.

Fixed this after the paint starting to get scraped in the roller slot when opening the sliding door:

Did you notice much difference on the sportline going from the t32 arb to the h&r?
