Looks spot on

You wanna get rid of the small cover near sliding door?

Ended up snapping two of the clips so ended up going in the bin, sorry.

Nice job on the carpeting

Thanks for comments guys, next is what vinyl floor to get.
Am tempted with a dark wood effect but unsure.

And with the back done the front looks bit odd so may have to carpet or paint some of the plastics to match better.

So have finally fitted my leisure battery behind the drivers seat.
Have tried wiring it in differently to others by using the busbar in the fuse box.
But need to check it all with volt meter as seems to keep sending power when have turned engine off until lock the car, if doesn't change then will have to go directly from the starter battery.



Hopefully it all works fine as think it makes engine bay look much tidier.

Nice bit of work, it's good to see someone hooking up to the spare terminals and using the correct bolts etc. I all too often see big chunky "ICE" fuse holders screwed down beside the engine bay fuse box and wonder if the person fitting it knew there was a very simple factory(style) method.
Anyway, to put you at ease, you are pretty much already connected to the start battery, that's the battery wire connecting unfused to the bus bar.

Yeah exactly that as seen so many people on here drill the fuse holders in to the top of the water tight fuse box, which now won't be.

But I like it more just because looks factory rather than big box stuck go the top.

Very smart looking van! The headliner looks pimp too

Thanks mate, hopefully will get a laminate floor down in the back this weekend, and next month make a start in the back with bench/bed and electrics

Looking good matey.

[tangoed-caddy]

Just a small mod today, little volt meter so can keep an eye on what battery is at.
Think that is best place for it.

That looks great in the back. Nice job on the carpeting mate

[Kamakazie]

Great progress. Especially like the neat leisure battery hookup and voltmeter.

Oh, what's the ceiling liner you used?

[tangoed-caddy]

Thanks guys, yeah keeps engine bay looking stock.

And the liner was from ebay just put in 'car upholstery '
But this is the eBay number..... 132073543795
He has few other designs really nice quality and has bit of stretch to it.
