What Have You Done To Your Van Today?

[Berto84]

Fitted the new THQ LED black lights. Not as stressfull as id feared although nerveracking yanking at the front bumper to get it off.
The separate drl leds are more obvious than I was hoping but for the price im still chuffed with the look!

 

[Kramsdog]

Lining van with world hardest carpet , RIBBED CARPET, the result is so good, no skin or nails left though

 

[Skyliner33]

fitted an internal tailgate momentary switch and some wiring for lights. Then my jigsaw gave up the ghost as I was cutting a hole in the ply panel for the lights :/

 

[foggy3061]

Fitted the front Bilstein B14s, H&R arb and Meyle HD arb drop links.

Probably too much thread showing beneath the adjusters for some......



Rears tomorrow I think!

 

[foggy3061]

Rears did indeed happen today.

 

[The_Lad]

Fitted custom size fridge cabinet from Camit Design and wired in my new CRX-50 fridge

 

[Stephen Hover]

Tackled the upgrade to the seats, need to get some little fencing hog rings to finish the backrest off so here are my 'topless' seats, quite pleased with how the bases have turned out. Not a difficult job just a bit fiddly, 2nd one a whole lot quicker than the first once I got the hang of it. Backrests are going to be slightly more challenging as the leather not quite as flexible compared to the thin cloth.



Suede lined the roof panels as well today, tomorrow is carpet lining the metal work...………….

Nice work on the seats. Did you line the OEM roof panels? How did you do the joining pieces?

Thanks, yep just used the OEM panels, not done the joining pieces as yet, was going to put the panels back in first and see how it looks first.

Thought I'd do my bit for the cause. Had a new flag commissioned for the Panadonkia tour.

 

[Alan Croft]

Fitted the double trim stuff on the doors. Shuts like a golf now Dunno how much difference it will make but another thing ticked off the list

Took some pics of the grilles and mirror surrounds for the last time in matt. Off to the body shop tomorrow for gloss black and splitter to be added.

 

[Westy78]

Silent coat and dodo insulation fitted, carpeted panels and fitted plastic wheel arch liners

 

[Trunkey]

Test fitted my newly delivered screen cover, I’m rather chuffed!

 

[foggy3061]

New ply roof panels as the originals were a bit beaten up!

Made a couple of splitter looms to allow me to add 2 more oem roof lights as well as reposition them slightly.

Then did the obvious and slid some LED bulbs into them!

Where did you get the ply panels from? How was the fit and location of the holes?

Bottomed out today on this stupid lane... been down there before but there was a stone in centre i hadnt spotted..

I bought them from Custom Designs via their Ebay listings. I added a message at 'buy it now' asking to omit the light cutouts (so I could position them myself).

The panel profile is excellent and the hole placement is pretty good. With the holes all being the larger diameter (there were a few smaller holes on the oem panels) there is enough 'float' to get all clips in easily enough.

I bought the other ply panels in the van from them too. They were just as good.

Ah ok, I returned mine from there as they were shocking, as some others found:

Pre Cut Cnc Machined Plywood Panels. Poor Quality
