Ah, got you! Ta! Great van, loving your build. Took some bits of inspiration from it, like actually getting round to ordering the screws to hold the floor mats down in the front!

Hey what gear knob did you fit? would love to get rid of the plastic one.
Also how much did you have to cut off the touran arm rest back?
Cheers
