Maxi - Not a Show Van

Loving all the suede interior! Will definitely be doing that to mine
Let me know details on wiring the interior lights to come on with the doors and a manual switch, would be interested in copying also!
Lovely van on the inside and out

Thank you, the suede is great if you can keep it clean! I'll draw out and upload a diagram for how I've wired it up once it's all working. The power is coming from the wiring that was going to the single rear light, so if you've got one you'll be alright to copy my set up although do so at your own risk

I’ve just unashamedly stolen your great idea of having straps to close the barn doors from the inside.
Vans looking great mate. Keep up the good work.

All lights and wiring fitted and working! Dimmer to operate left / right lights with 3 position on/off/on switch to control lights on with door, off, or on permanently.

Wire colours from the van - blue/yellow=timed negative, brown/black=constant negative, red=positive
The 3 position switch is in the negative of the circuit, light negative in the middle, timed / constant negative on the outside. The dimmer has the positive from the van going to it (vin+ on switch) then positive to the left and right lights (led+) leaving it. The dimmer requires a negative to work so have attached to the constant negative of the van through the 3 position switch, this way the dimmer works with the lights on in either timed or constant mode.

I am by no means an electrician so this took a bit of figuring out with basic circuit knowledge from school so hopefully those in a similar position can get this working with the pictures and my rough write up!

And finally suede covered and fitted so time to sit back and stare at it! Unsure whether to suede the speaker box or keep it carpeted but quite liking the divide and join between the sides it gives so will leave for the time being
