No worries! Thanks for checking out the videos 👍

Yeah it’s been great. 👍 Only thing I would have done is add some more of the think insulation under the roof lining

@@tonywhyte hi 👋 no it’s just 12v only and yes I used the wire to put in an extra 240v socket on the side of the cupboard which is quite handy

@@TransitCustomCamper Can I ask why you opted for 12v only?

Ah thanks for the comment and checking out the content. Very much appreciated 👍

@TransitCustomCamper no probs...have subbed and will check out other vids as the wife has a converted 2018 custom...in process of changing double cab seat to single swivel 👍

No I never got round to it tbh! I got a different and small blind that would fit and I think the overall process would be the same.. Let me know how you get on if you try it 👍

Hi 👋 thanks for the comment and checking out the video - I wired it all back to the switch panel and leisure battery as part of the build I did a video on the electrics here th-cam.com/video/wJ9MWQ0APco/w-d-xo.htmlsi=-R3Ot33YOPSJ8o80

Yeah sorry I meant the red and black wire you connected to the led wire in this video I’ve learnt a lot watching your videos

👋 thanks for the comment and watching the videos! I got a 110Ah leisure battery has been great so far. I picked it up from Halfords in U.K. 👍

Ah nice one.. thanks for watching and good luck with the build 👍

Thank you ❤️

I think if we were using more as a camper all the time then yes. But we mainly use it as a day van and also have an awning too so have not really felt we needed a pop top 👍

Sticky parts came supplied with the emblems already 👍

Being honest… not really used the freezer part too much 😂 So maybe yeah.. freezer to fridge ratio not the best 👍 it’s been great though.. no issues, pretty good on usage etc.. keeps the beers cool 👌

Ah great 👍 thanks for the comment and checking out the videos - very much appreciated 😀

Ah nice one cheers! Did not know that I’ll take a look! Thanks for the comment

Ah great thanks 👍 I know the van is not to the standard of a professional conversion - but really happy with it for the ££ and been great and used it all the time 👍

Hey - I used a little 12v one I picked up from Amazon here amzn.to/4gQ1Saf

Yes it’s been good - no issues at all and keeps the van pretty warm/cool as needed 👍

@@TransitCustomCamper brill thanks. This looks to be a less labour intensive approach which I like. My hope is that good venting will prevent the need for a dedicated vapour barrier

Thanks mate! Ah glad the van is going well.. we been in ours loads but we going to be selling soon as getting another project!!

Ah great thanks for the info 👍

I actually left it in the end! I saw some people filled with foam or cut a piece of play and then carpet lined that might do the job 👍

@@TransitCustomCamper thank you

Yes 😂 Beers welcome too 🍺 Thanks for watching

@TransitCustomCamper Party at your van!!!! Again, great build man. Fantastic.

@@glasgowscorsese thanks 🙏- hope so! Had a slight delay on this project as some other work needing doing! But hoping to get back on it soon 👍 Thanks for watching

Thanks for the comment and checking out the videos! How much time for the sink or the whole van? It’s hard to tell really.. whole think was about 7 weeks at weekends and evenings but as was filing etc took longer! I think this sink took a day too.. was good fun though 👍

@@TransitCustomCamper You done a great job and certainly provided great videos on how to do it. I'm tempted but it may well drive me bonkers.

The latch actually doesn’t work! The doors are very snug with the t trim so never actually needed the latch!

Oh right… might be worth double checking the wires again or check on CTEK site.. sorry I can’t help more

Hi - yes I do.. generally majority of customs from 2013 and 2014 onwards had the smart alternator. You can test with a voltmeter on the battery at start up and then a bit after and voltage should change 👍

@@TransitCustomCamper brilliant thanks mate much appreciated

Hi there - thanks for the comment and checking out the video.. I did a video here with a breakdown of the materials and cost etc.. Insulation details in there too 👍 How much does a DIY van conversion cost? Transit Custom Conversion th-cam.com/video/yXjvPr94cZA/w-d-xo.html

Ours has been ok actually and not too bad for power? I am not sure what setting we usually use have not looked for ages - sorry 😔

Yes mate.. too brittle! Got caught on a speed bump after a few weeks and snapped! I have switched out for a TCR style splitter now which is not as low and more flexible for UK roads!

Yes good shout.. I wast sure how much to use to be honest but it’s been OK since fitting. Thanks for the comment on it too 👍

I actually picked up of Amazon I think? Or eBay.. Did a look up and they still do them amzn.to/4dK26O3

Ah cheers! I had the wheels supplied by the dealer I got the van from and also the side steps.. The wheels are called Callibre.. so think you can pick them up if you Google em

Hi - thanks for the comment and checking out the videos 👍 I got the flooring from Harrison Trim suppliers here www.harrisonstrimsupplies.co.uk/Altro-Contrax-Rear-cut-floor-to-fit-VW-T5T6-SWB

@@TransitCustomCamper thank you!

@@TransitCustomCamper I’m trying to decide on the Walkway (2mm) or Contrax (0.9mm) , can you recommend either?

@beecyclesukstourbridgebike7672 I think I went for the walkway.. our van is used as the family bus, work van and the camper.. so the thicker stuff a bit better 👍 although wish we went for a darker colour as does show up all the dirt!!

Ah thanks 🙏 hrmm now that’s a question! I can’t remember now it was about 1 or 1.5 inches I think? Sorry I can’t remember for sure 😅

Yeah.. I think you probably right 😂 I wanted to cover the core parts of the build and yes some bits not in here for sure.. a lot of things I bought after and also for a bit more content to film too 👍

Thanks 🙏 I got them from eBay there is a kit you can buy will do the job

Ah great thanks 👍 Appreciate the comment and for checking out the videos 😀

Thank you 👍

Ah nice one thanks! Good luck with your conversion! Drop me a line with any questions and I’ll help if I can 👍 Thanks again for the comment and checking out the videos

Hey.. thanks for checking out the video and the feedback. What did you do on your build? It was my first attempt so be great to get your view? We can still use the cupboard & have since put in a shelf and a partition and a rail also.. so it’s not too bad 😅

Oh no! Sorry to hear that.. ours has been OK 👍

Hey! Hrmm not too sure.. You can set the temp of the fridge and also separate for the freezing area.. have you checked that? If still not getting cold then might need to contact the supplier.. ours gets cold pretty quick usually within 30 mins when ambient temperature is fairly cool anyway..
