- Converted my 2014 Skoda Yeti in a camper for a few nights to see how it goes. Seen many builds online for different cars including the Yeti, but this was out take on it for a very cheap amount compared to some of the pre made builds.
We got a sheet of 18mm hard plywood and had it cut into 6 pieces by them original size 2.44m x 1.22m
2x timber (63mm x 38mm)
18 x threadless screws
Ikea foam mattress
Window thermal blinds

Great job man :thumbsup:
Brilliant. I now have a project 🙂
Just a tip but if you turn the music down a bit when you talk it might make it a bit better for the hard of hearing 😅
Really looks the business. I have the raised (boot) floor version so would have less storage space underneath. Currently my good lady has pinched my Yeti as she has a knee problem and mine is automatic (2.0, 4x4) but once I get it back I’m going to measure up for a 1 man (possibly dog too) overnight camper. Have been away camping with it and used a DD tarp over the hatch as a large porch area which worked well but I tented ⛺️ that time. Please post more videos of it in use 👍. Best of luck and stay safe.
I used the half a base from a double storage bed (UK SIZE), 54x37 inches take drawers out for underneath storage ,no sawing or faffin fits my skoda yeti perfect........no buying wood or cutting it....SIMPLESSSSSSS
Can you sleep 2 people within it?
Perfect for one I can see, genius. What length is it?
Own a 2017 2.0tdi CR dsg 4x4 yeti having owned range rover sport focus rs bmw x6 etc the yeti is a superb all rounder much better than its replacement I'd advise anyone to get one brilliant car and trust me it can move
I wish I got myself the 4x4. Its the only downside to the car otherwise its fantastic
Nice, I like it. Tempted to get a Yeti now. Where did you get the blackout blinds?
Thanks, I got the blackout blinds from Amazon specific for the car.
That looks really cool! I'm thinking about getting a Yeti. How long is the space from the back of the front seats, to the closed hatch? I'm just under 2 m, wonder if i would fit? Thanks!
Trying to remember but I'm sure it's like 178cm for the full length
You would need to sleep with your head at the rear and your feet between the front seats
Well done. Did you make the window thermal blinds yourself as well?
No I have tried in the past but with the shape of the window(s), I felt it was harder than getting them precut. Also I got them fairly cheap compared to everywhere else I looked. The cost of materials would have made is about 50% of what I paid but at least these were designed for my car 😀
Hiya, is there a link where I can buy these blinds pls? Great building work!
Super...been thinking about doing this kind of thing with my yeti...have you done much camping in it?....where did you get your blinds made?....any issues with condensation?....thanks for sharing
I have done quite a bit tbh and it was great but as the winter comes in...then need to think is it worth the cold nights being freezing 🥶 the blinds I got from amazon pretty cheap compared to what they are usually advertised and condensation can be an issue but I got myself a window vac to remove as mich as possible which seems to work very well.
@@rjturner010480 I'm planning for spring time...the thought of waking up in a soggy blanket really fills me with dread..I did see these little crystal trays that soak up moisture and these click on plastic window caps where by you can leave the window open a tiny bit..that's definitely for warmer weather!! Many thanks for your reply. Best wishes
@@j.e.7028 so I did it before woth a blow up mattress and it was okish but experienced the issue with damp covers as the air mattress air cools down and just an uncomfortable situation to be in. The foam mattress was a million times better as it retains the heat. We leave the windows open slightly and used dehumidifiers and they work well for 1 person sleeping but not overly great for 2. But in the end it's not a campervan with a diesel heater etc. It's a car conversion and sometimes need to sacrifice some luxuries and accept the enviable (regarding dampness etc).
@@rjturner010480 your so right, and really looking for a bit in an adventure...thanks a million
Unwatchable because of the audio unfortunately

Without the music.
Thanks. How much did it cost you in total?
£250-£300 in total and £120 of that was on the foam mattress.
Hey, do you have details of the measurements you can post, please?
I need to find the sheet we used to design it. But will get it to you asap
Would be better without the music ehile you're speaking. 👍
Totally agree with you on that point.
Here is the video with no music at all

@@rjturner010480 Thankyou very much👍
The background music is very annoying

There you are, should be easier to watch...hopefully.
why must we have that bloody music
nice job mate can you tell me where the blinds come from
I got them off amazon but have sold the yeti now
can we have a version without the music please ? cant hear you telling what you have done for the music, the higher the volume the higher the music ! thank you
I'll see what I can do for you when I get home.
thank you

Does not look safe to me,. What happens if he car rolls? Need go review the design
