By the time I'd got everything for them round about £800 I would say, you might be able to get them a little cheaper if you buy a set from eBay complete. Discs are £300 for the pair, pads are over £200 for the set, so not cheap for really for spares,

Hope the missus doesn't see this, think I told her they were £60 :lol: :lol:

Headlight are even more expensive, to get someone else to fit them would be £2k+ buy the time you get all the modules, sensors and wiring, that's before you even buy the headlights themselves. They are good though but for that kind of money you'd need them to be.

Very sharp looking van.
How do passengers find travelling in the back of the van with no windows.
I've got a T4 camper with no windows and travelling in the back is a bit weird because the seats are so far back.
Is it okay in the Caddy with being close to the front?

Thanks, good to get a first hand opinion before making such a big change. It'd only really be for short trips anyway.

Awesome van, just awesome! Wheel/van colour combo is spot on. Never knew my caddy needed alcantara trim till now.
Going to have to do the brakes now, too...

Thanks guys for all your positive comments, means a lot, to the untrained eye it just looks like a lowered caddy van with 19's. Think that's what I like about it :D

Van looks impresive,i've done the same headlight conversion and can agree with all you've said. I didn't find out about fuse until a wet Friday night on the M25 :shock:
Has anybody queried the lack of headlight washers? Not complaining mind i've had 2 mot's and nothing been said.

Oh not a good time for a fuse to go, lucky (I guess) for me I didn't get the van out of the garage before it blew :shock: what size fuse did you replace it with? As for mot, that's not due until September, I think I'll just keep quiet and if any things said play dumb :roll:
