Excellent. Is that a sliding door?

Yes.

Got it from Argos it's made from plastic, so a little flimsy but does the job.

It's designed for a full size house door but was easy to cut to get the correct height and it has little tiny screws holding the slats in place, so I was able to reduce the width also.

It's still on sale http://www.argos.co.uk/product/7012761

Looking great! I'm very interested in the high top conversion, where did you get it done and how much was it?

Hi,

The High top was fitted by Leisuredrive (they do loads of VW conversions, but they seem to have stopped doing Transits).

It cost me about £900.00 (and was done in a day with free loan car) but you need to get in touch with them to see if they still do it.
