I have now finished the carpeted panels, and fitted curtains, on the drivers side of the van. The Van-X curtains are great and very easy to fit. Rails are attached to the top and bottom of the window frame, with the supplied screws, and studs are attached to the window sides to create a really effective blackout screen.


I also bought some window rubbers, off ebay, to give a good finish to the window edges.

At the back of the van I have fitted a wider rear step, using the black caps from the old cover for two of the holes. I still need to get 2 more but they are about £2.50 each - for a small piece of plastic!

The white and blue box is a battery charger and distribution unit, with the ac power coming from a hook-up socket located behind the offside rear light cluster (which is still to be fitted). The orange 16amp cable is already in position.

The next job is for the furniture to be fitted, by 'Convert your Van' in Sheffield. Then its the electrics. I do wonder whether I should have given more thought to the lighting than I have thus far.

I also think a darker floor would have been a good idea as it shows up muddy footprints very easily.
