Hi from Scotland. I have a 2 door Golf. I have wanted to see more of Scotland and Ireland in my car. I don't need to be too self sufficient, but the fact that you gitted in a bed in a 2 door car is inspirational! Im now going to work out the best layout for mine. Thank you for a great video!
I have the same car and currently considering converting it like this - had no idea you could independently take the seat cushion out and have the back lay flat. That's a game changer!
This is awesome! Thank you. I have a 2010 VW golf that I am thinking of converting. I bought a van for me to travel and my dog but there’s a lot of things wrong with the van so i don’t have the money to fix it so will probably end up selling the van. I’m planning on going for 2 to 3 months with my dog and I think it’s going to be awesome
"If you're taller, it probably wouldn't work" - DAMN! I'm 6 foot-even and just crawled into the back of my '05 Golf TDI, passenger side, front seat cranked full forward - it's like 2" too short for me. Not giving up hope yet, though. Nice portable setup, man - so efficient and flexible!
I have a perfect solution. Most people I have watched was them sleeping with their head towards the cabin/front of the golf. I am 5’8” and even I had issues doing that in my 2012 2dr golf. But after I got home from sleeping uncomfortably. I realized something (a little to late lol) that if you sleep with your head towards the back, it will be a easier space for your legs as long as the front seats are push forward. You’ll get a few inches of feet off the seat. But it beats sleeping with your knees bent at a 90° angle
I got a 2 Door golf pretty recently and have had the thought in the back of my head ,"Do I have Sports Camper?" Look like I do!!! I'm wondering how easy it is to take out that passenger seat, I think as long as I left the rear seat in like you did I'd be good if anyone needed a ride. But if the passenger seat was nixed this thing would be golden
I have a 2008 Mitsubishi colt. I took out the back seats. I have lots of space. Im only 5'7. I even have a toilet. Its perfect for my weekend trips all over Norway.
always viewing video's of small 2 door with hatchback converted to 'camper'. i currently have a '99 Honda Civic Hatchback...& possibly looking for Realistic/Comfortable ideas for 'STEALTH-Weekend-Urban-Camping'! CHEERS!
Thanks for sharing dude, but if you're out by yourself, why wouldn't you want to take out all the seats except the drivers? And did you consider a roof rack and box for additional storage? Edit: saw your roof rack, but no storage on top?
Hi Daniel, yeah I spent two years living in Korea as a missionary. I still have the bag which I bought there and of course Shin Ramen just happens to be the best ramen out there.
Hey dude, would love to know how your doing with this set up now that it's been some time since you released this video. I'm about to do up some make shift set up for my 3 door hatchback car also which feels impossible but I'm excited.
Unfortunately I only had that setup for one summer while I was traveling. I’d say just go and try it out but don’t commit too early to the vagabond life. 😅 I’ve known several people who jumped into the vanlife only to realize they didn’t love it.
Man this, dumpster diving, homeless shelters, welfare card, salvation army wardrobe, panhandling, occasional malt liquor ...... veritable American dream we got going on here.
Cameron lived in Korea for two years and is fluent. Its wicked cool going to korean restaurants w/ him and he converses w/ the people who work there. Its impressive.
Some people don’t worry about resale if they don’t plan to do it, some people are like you and negative and worry about nonsense. You watched the video right?
I have a 4 door. Thus guy managed to ser it up in a 2 door. You give me hope lol.

Really brilliant choice of tools and hacks. I think I like your way of problem solving. Stay strong
Greetings from the UK. Great little setup. Be well and be safe.
The mesh airflow cover is really neat, stay safe out there! I'm gonna do something similar with my 2012 Golf
I really like how it is uncomplicated and utilitarian. This is how I hope to do it.
This is awesome! Thank you. I have a 2010 VW golf that I am thinking of converting.

Making a small space work perfectly.
I think you did well with what you had, and I'm sure as time went on things changed a bit. Good job young man.

Tanks for sharing your setup - I'm looking to camp for a couple of nights only in my mk7.5 in Scotland visiting the Loch Ness area on a budget. :)
Nice idea mate, planning to do that sort of thing when Lockdown ends here in the UK, im joining your journey
Same here! I'm awaiting lift off with lockdown & I'm off in the direction of Scotland 👍..

I'm joining the car camping in my 2 dr sxi Corsa as soon as lockdown is lifted in the UK...
I have a similar set up with a air cooler and a diesel heater and a fridge with external battery
I also took off all the seats except the driver one
I really need to see it, did you think of posting a video from your Golf?
The air cooler and heater...how does that work? I really need any info on how to for my mini conversion car. Any info you have would be appreciated!
Thank you for sharing ,you gave me few ideas.
Good idea with the mesh, going to have to try that out 👍
I have a 3-door Mk 7 GTi I remove the passenger seat when camping solo it is a game-changer for extra space and headroom
I have a golf and def want to do some car camping. Helpful tips!
I have the 4 door version of your car and have a super similar set up for my micro camper :)
tons of great ideas thanks! was thinking of doing this with my mk7 3 door vw but i might have to take my passenger seat out.
great ideas; thanks for a well-done video!
What kind of fan is that? And how does it charge?

You could get a roof tent for your car.
@@captainplanet7735 ..i've 'considered' that ...but i want to 'sleep' Inside vehicle to be 'STEALTH'.....
you're very lucky to have that civic hatchback!
I wanna try this with ‘07 GTI!
Great ideas and well done.
Thanks for sharing dude, but if you're out by yourself, why wouldn't you want to take out all the seats except the drivers? And did you consider a roof rack and box for additional storage?
Edit: saw your roof rack, but no storage on top?
How long can you keep the fan running with this battery
I have the exact same water jug
How tall would this work for if the front seat was pushed all the way forward?
Is it easy to take out the rear seat cushions?
Cool!!
I live in the car for 3 years i know how struggling it is( honesty not fun at all very uncomfortable)thump up .
R u 4’3’
nice video man keep it up
Spotted the Korean Flag and military bag and some Shin ramen! any story behind of it? lol
Hi Daniel, yeah I spent two years living in Korea as a missionary. I still have the bag which I bought there and of course Shin Ramen just happens to be the best ramen out there.
Great job👍
im too long to fit in my golf 😢
Great ideas! Ty💐

Thank you for your tips. :)

He said he was going to be doing this for a month, not forever. It's called saving money whilst having some fun camping.
Nice backpack. It means koeean army.

VW FTW! thanks for sharing
Yes.. I.like

Hi there new subbie! QUESTION, how tall are you in 5’10 and thinking about doing this in my Hyundai Veloster lol nervous tho
Hey Justin! I’m only 5’7 so it could certainly be challenging for you but I’d love to see how you solve that problem!
We need your Instagram to follow you on your journey!!!
Trashy I like it.
You should delete your back seats
alt title: Art Major Drops out of college and ruins the resale value of the car while living in it.
Some people don’t worry about resale if they don’t plan to do it, some people are like you and negative and worry about nonsense. You watched the video right?
