I spotted that but wondered if he carpeted with the in place or took them out. Even if took them out I imagine the suede would make the hole too small for the new covers.

Yeah the material is great, plenty of stretch to it to help manipulate it into place.
Yeah I’ve changed the speakers previously so the grilles pop in and out now, was quite fiddly tbf now the material takes up some space to squeeze them back in but just went slow trimming it

I get you now!!
if you stretch the material tight around the edges you tend to not lose too much space, the material can end up quite thin if you manipulate it enough and you are normally left with some overlap with the grilles / switches which covers up where it has been stretched.

Hi, looks good, is there an exact "grey" colour you have to request?Stolen the idea from a fellow member but really enjoying adding some alcantara style wrap to the lower dash and A pillars to make it feel less commercial

Thanks
Quick and dirty solution to the gap down the side of the bed. Might need to trim a little more off for wheel arch but so far it’s a lot better than before.
There are 3 options in this material
This is light grey, there is also Charcoal and black.
Washed it, we have a small tour of East Anglia coming up next week....
A week of what seemed like solid rain, then the sunshine came out.....

Small upgrade - I wasn't pleased by rear wiper for a long time. Tried to find longer one than 400mm, but without luck. So I made one - bought Bosch 450H and replaced the mounting clips. It is almost ideal now (as you can see), you can notice a difference in rear mirror. Next time when I will be replacing rubber I will move it 3-4mm down to have it perfect 
Quick and relatively simple fast charge usb c added to front passenger dash. Already have a 12v fuse board behind stereo linked back to leisure battery, so was more making a front plate than anything. No fancy catches as will just be glued in to place for time being. It might even be upside down in photo....

That's the controller for the heater, also works from app on my phone.
No don't do it. I must not modify the new van! Almost like an addiction!
