Thank you! Very useful!

You could really get big in the next couple years, as the global economy declines and people are more inclined to go “on the road” My thoughts are for you to stick with it - time flies & next thing you know, subscribers multiply then the YT money shows up. And keep building and sharing. Great info, no waste of viewers time. Like your build & your style. 👏

very clear explanation.

Where did you get your closed cell adhesive foam?

Danke dir für das Video, die Software ist super. ;)

One of the greatest videos ever created! Learnt a lot. Thanks! Keep up the good work and dont listen to the haters!

Hi, I'm currently installing a Medi Heki 700x500 in my Ford Transit Connect LWB, but I'm facing an issue with the roof profile, which bends in an arch of about 25 mm. This curvature makes it challenging to secure the Medi Heki frame tightly to the roof. I'm looking for any experiences, thoughts, or suggestions for inspiration. Right now, I'm experimenting with wooden frames for the interior that match the roof's profile, but I'm still struggling with the outer fitting of the Medi Heki frame, which leaves a gap due to the roof's bending. All the best; Cheers!

Does it lock in position when swivelled? or only in the driving position

How did you do the batten along the sliding door edge please (this is lower than the ridges so wouldn’t naturally be flush with the rest of your battens?)

The clear cab light cover just clips off with a screwdriver.

Thx very useful !

Hey, came across your video as I am currently looking at purchasing the micro heki. Just wondered if you've had any leaking issues since installing? I saw another video about cleaning the plastic frame (don't think it was the heki) with dishwashing liquid and maybe even sanding it to create a better grip for the sealant, as they originally didn't and had some leaks. Thanks

Glass windows comes with the fly screen You shouldn’t worry ab insulation at all in such a small space And also acrylic windows scratch soo quick and the most important is to look through acrylic and then look through glass :)

Thanks 👍

Thx, Really useful.

Anyone know is there some sort of a conversion kit to use on an older t5 (04) so that it might accommodate the newer style of radio fixing as shown in this video? Thanks.

I just don't understand why everyone uses timber to frame it. I got a different brand and theres no mention of making a frame in the instructions. I'm just afraid to cut my hole out and not know the depth of timber frame to make😂

Excellent video and clearly explained

Brilliant video. Really helpful. Thanks for taking the time

I wouldn't worry about security because if someone wants to break in, then they will do. Also, a bonded glass window adds torsional rigidity to the vehicle, as with the front windscreen which adds 34%.

use hilti foam. way better than soudal

Had the same problem with water getting in from the radio aerial Base which is an easy fix but there's so much to remove and put back again.

Tnx m8 😊

Shame but the constant moving camera made me feel sick

How did you insulate the floor

Hey super helpful! What size cable did you run for the blanket?

One of the best videos!!! Knowledgeable and straight to the point. Thank you!!×

Curious if you do anything to insulate over the wooden rib things. Are you attaching your cabinates etc to the wood or somehow through the insulation to the metal ribs. Cheers

Please notify myself and others once you post part 2.

Very useful information. Thank you!

Quite the construction work 😂

Wait aren’t you supposed to put the foil side to the outside???

HI Sam, thx for the video. How are you after that year with the ductape adaption of the roof? Would you stil reccomend this? and why do you write that forced ventilation is just for caravans? were thinking to get one with forced ventialation for our ducato since we bring a lot of humidity inside due to sports and wet dog....

Thanks for info about other site who sells them cheaper, but as @willyskipper said it's a scam, they add VAT on top of the listed price. Even if it's still cheaper than elsewhere I wont use them because of these practices.

DUDE!...your carpentry is horrendous! Leaves the rest of the job VERY suspect!

Did you manage to find the source of the water ingress in your cab light ?

Where did you get the frame? 🙏🙏

Good job Sam I am about to tackle the very same task, now I know what is in front of me, from Pete down under thanks a lot

Hi Sam. Did you know about Elddis's idea of Winterising a motorhome. We have a 2019 Elddis 155 Supreme. Last January we headed to Glenmore near Aviemore. We weren't concerned about low temperatures as our van has this winterising pack fitted (see my channel 'Glenmore in Winterwonderland'.) Needless to say everthing that could freeze - did! The most it got down to was minus 4 or 5 degees c which isn't a lot. With what looks like bubble wrap on each tank stuck with duct tape and not one hint of pipe insulation it's no wonder we had trouble. Waste water outlet pipe froze first then the washbasin waste, then the kitchen sink waste and then the cold water from the tank stopped pumping through. We managed with bottled water and a seperate outside waste tank that we poured sink water into. We had to wait for the weather to warm for it all to eventually thaw and start working again. God, when it all thawed out it felt like sheer luxury lol. I'm a retired plumber and used to sorting bursts and insulating pipes so you can imagine how frustrated I was. I felt helpless. Your kitchen sink waste pipe goes down in a big dip. This will be holding water that can freeze. It needs clipping flat to the bottom of your van floor. But you may then find bad smells come wafting from the tank as the dipping pipe is acting like a trap. You can't win unless you pop the plug in the waste in the sink. Ours are the same. On the Elddis production line who ever does the plumbing on these vans must have absolutely no idea at all. The pipes go up and down everywhere. Do this in a house and you'll have problems. Elddis are getting away with murder. There are supposed to be two heaters in the side of the tanks. We had these turned on. I don't think they work. The van is out of warranty which is annoying. We'll probabley be going again next January (gluttons for punishment) Thanks for the video.

Acrylic cracks. Polycarbonate is ten times stronger and don't creack. They just dent.

Hi Sam, thinking of replacing my ariel with a DAB one, would you need to remove the headlining to get at this or can you access it once the light is removed? thanks

Thanks for the video, I wonder: do you always close the tap of the gas tank (at night, while driving etc.)? Or do you just leave it open?

Very useful video. Same problem with my ducato. Must tackle it now thanks to this video.

Does anyone have any tips on how to get the light off? The clip things aren't moving at all and I really need to get the light off. There's loads of sand in there from the previous owner

That is a shambles...😂

100% agree with your three points. The Trigano Tribute 550 layout is almost perfect & it includes all the points you make. I’d also add swivels on the cab seats for comfy arm chairs & not just bench seating that is also the bed.

Hey there! I have a very annoying problem: I bought the Micro Heki and before installing it, I already mounted the inner frame with fly net (because I couldn't wait to see how it looks), which was really stupid because now I can't get it off. Is there a way to take it back out?

Needs details on the inverter used or a link to the video about the inverter.

Thank you for putting this video together it helped us removing our headliner in our Fiat Ducato. Great video 👍🏼

It will be interesting to see what you do with the roof if you plan to do a video since it looks like it will be different to the ply and batten sections ripped out from the previous thin profile version and you already have a thicker floor.
