I can't do anything with your links either, I think you've copied the image address on your device instead of copying the links photo bucket provide for sharing.
Also forgive my ignorance but what's a cng van?

Thinking it’s compressed natural gas ?

Re: Red MK3 CNG Build
After upgrading my headunit i found myself in a bit of a struggle.
Got the wrong ports for my car.
Tanks to horace01 and his buildlog viewtopic.php?f=13&t=19058 now knew what i was loocking for.
Got mysalf the tray of a Touran of E-Bay.
Still don´t have a clew what the "W ON" swich is actuali is for.
But it all works and looks a lot cleaner now.

Re: Red MK3 CNG Build
I want to use the Caddy as a daily driver, somtimes a camper and want to be able to put my Bike into it (Honda FIreblade SC59).
Therefore is a Flexseat needet because the bike is to long (2,1 m) for a Caddy with a short weel base.
So i got myself a Flexeat of E-Bay and new seatrails because i could not find used ones.
Old seats and rails out and the new ones in.
Now finaly i have enought lenght (up to 2,6 m) to load basicly everything.
Some cheap seat covers need to do the job for the time.

Re: Red MK3 CNG Build
That's a very neat solution with that folding seat. I've seen people asking about those seats before, perhaps you'll get some questions.

Re: Red MK3 CNG Build
Hello @mk3boy, could I ask you if your van by any chance is equipped with Webasto heater?
