Love this colour!! All the little touches have got it looking great so far mate :) Hope the carpet helps with the road noise when fitted.

Cheers mate....going back to the road noise....I Say it doesn't seem any different to before...but I don't think I noticed much road noise before I ripped the ply out...
Could this be down to the tyres? As the van came with bridgestones fitted, so thinking a cheaper tyre may create a lot more road noise and this is why Iv not experienced the "road noise". think I need to go in another caddy see if it's any different. Lol

Tyres make a massive difference.. I've always found continental tyres noisey.. Alot of the budgets are noisey.. Need to look for tyre with 69 db or lower as a lot are over 70db

You find them on eBay, search for "vw Bora air con knobs".

Thats tidy.
Whats the picture like on the screen?
Does it point down enough to see the bumper or near the back of the van?

Cheers doc, I wanted it somewhere discreet so was either here or the wiper delete bung.

Havnt got the rns510 in yet, but wanted to get the wiring for the camera through before I carpet the back out.
R.e. The angle....I hadn't thought about it having the bumper in view tbh, I will get it all plugged in properly and then have a little adjustment, the way I have if fixed atm, I'll be able to modify at a later date if need be.

Yeah me too, it's those little touches that just make a difference. Not in your face but after you've looked at it for a good 10/15 mins you spot it
