What did you do to your van today?

Bought some genuine mud flaps today, do you need to remove wheels to fit?

Refit the deadlock on my new (to me) ex BG van. Owner had lost the key but after seeing some sound advice on here I found a spare under the fuse box in the engine bay. Nice one

Ruined my vans usefulness

Axel flip is the next step.
Will need to be adjusted higher

I take it that was the cool box and not the food

Although the food is a good modification to have at tatton park

Did a test fit with the 255 /45/ 18 tires today no issue with the sliding door. Very tight of course.
Not sure about the TÜV though......
Haven't installed the front coilovers yet.

Picked up these seats to fit in my caddy today.

They sit quite high as they are so may try fitting them onto the original caddy bases.

Definitely alot comfier than the standard seats!

Stripped out the carpets and replaced them with the rubber flooring. Alot better for cleaning as it being a fishing vehicle. Will put the carpets up for sale on this section of the forum soon.

Don't look from any other angle

You can see the front edge doesn't quite line up with the hole, but at least the sides line up now (mostly).

Fitted in a LHD dash box (sort of).

I used those exact runners to build a drawer into my caddy.
You my find you struggle to get the rearmost screws through the runner, into your (tray, drawer, bed)..
Hopefully its close enough to tailgate you will have clearance. I had to mount mine onto a false floor, then slide the whole unit into the caddy and bolt to the floor, or I couldn't secure runners at the back...

Got it all in and working, I use threaded inserts to screw runner to tray but these runners are a pita as they don't come apart...

Had a touran dash from wife's old car for ages so finally got a dry day to fit it. Also managed to get mk2 touran vents, surround and top pocket yesterday to replace the old and broken bits. Definitely nicer to look at. Needed some modding to refit my stereo setup but all in now
