Hi Chris, here is the trim under the driver's seat. Sorry I can't see any part numbers, they are probably on the underside of the trim?Image

its the trim at the front of the rear seats if that makes sense? if you open the sliding door and look at the front of the rear seat where the carpet comes up from the footwell

thanks for the help

Hi Chris, have a look at this photo. I took out the single seat while cleaning today. Still can't see any part numbers as I guess they are at the back of the trim pieces. Hope this helps you a bit!Image

So after a clean today I decided to finish de-badging the tailgate. I took the 'TDI' off several months ago to see how easy it was to remove. I think it looks a lot crisper without the 'BlueMotion' and 'Caddy' badges!ImageImage

Small job done on the Caddy today. Since we have previously used the van as a basic camper, I have wanted to add a boot release so that the tailgate can be opened from the inside - makes it easier to get out.

So, I removed the back panel to see how the boot lock works, and found that all that is required is a little lift up of the catch. Measured out and drilled a hole and used a cable grommet to finish off. The boot can now be opened from the inside!ImageImageImage

Haven't updated this for a while! Life kinda got in the way.....there was the whole Covid Lockdown stuff going on, and then we had a house move so nothing much happened with the Caddy other than it being a great work horse!

Anyway back to the Caddy updates, during lockdown, around June 2020, I decided to attempt to make some sort of panels to cover the inside of the rear windows. I am always worried that one day they will 'pop' when carrying bikes or camping gear!

Will try and add photos when I can remember how to do it - it's been too long!!

Once I was reasonably happy with the fit of the wood panels I decided to paint them to match the Caddy. They are held in place with cavity wall fixings in the original holes where the interior plastic trim clips into place.ImageImageImage
