No major mods yet, just starting out, so I’ve been checking behind panels and measuring up the new maxi for sound deadener and insulation, practicing disassembly and reassembly.
Looking to do roof and both sides first, and being in Aus, pricing options. Currently looking at carbuilders.com Stage 1 and Insul-Layer products.
Curious what other locals might have used - any suggestions?

@Bradleyb those door trims and radio surround just clip in. I would recommend to get a set of trim removal tools of eBay, if you haven't got already and you'll be alright. Things much easier when you have the right tool.

Decided to finally trial fit my 19” Cadiz reps, going to give them a quick refurb this week and hopefully coilovers end of the month!

@bob86

Yes mate sorry thought you was talking about the window switch trim. did you custom make yours or buy it already done with the two switches only. I can’t get my switches to stay in they just drop out.

The previous owner of my van bought it, so I don't know, but it just clips in with the side. Have the lugs on yours broken off?
