The next thing I want to do it carpet the rear. Then sort out something better inside to hold my motorcycles and cycles up. Image

I'm going to carpet the ply lining I already have. I did think of doing it without the carpet lining. Image

I covered the head lining in flux leather and added some cheap lights off ebay.
I just need to think of where to add the switches for them. Image

I used some rubber mat off ebay for the floor. It's not stuck on or anything. Same with the ply on the floor. Image

I bought a xtrons stereo so decided to fit a reversing camera. The one I had was a bit bulky so I bought a smaller one and cut a hole in the rear door handle panel. Image

I put the reversing camera wire though the door loom. I had it just taped to the door to start with. Image

The xtrons stereo is good for the price it can be a bit buggy with the radio names when the signal is low. I would like a better aerial or something the caddy one is really badImage

I painted my side strips. They had a slight bend in them so the mini seat is there to help it stay. I ened up using so better 3m tape. scotch 3m tape is really strong and is 0.6mm all the other brands are 0.8 to 1mm. Image

I bought this switch panel for the back of the van. I might not use it and get something smaller. Image
