Rear seat is camper style that folds into bed and floor is plywood with aluminium rails for it.

it's mk3 2,5D with Reimo Knauss Camper roof tent and interior ( camper rear seat/bed , sink and gas stove )

I wonder what was ordered from ford and what was added later.
No power steering , two batteries, extra switches with fuses for camper stuff above rear mirror, webasto , extra fuses behind glove box ( not connected , something was cut off )

Secondly what does "TAS" stand for on vin plate in the bracket "type" ?

Hi Alan,

Been following you on FB - hope all coming together now?

Resurrecting an old thread! :)

I am trying to fit fogs to my mk3 van. They were fitted originally so got the bumper cutouts etc. Struggling with wiring. Don't suppose you have a VSO wiring diagram with colour codes amongst your archive have you?

All the best

They are indeed but the previous owner of our van removed the spots and I want to pick up the wires to reconnect them. I need some SVO colour codes for the spots. Where is the relay (9) and the fuse (10) - got the switch on the dash .. found a couple of loose wires under the bonnet (bk/y and br) and (bk and br) .. but no power on them.

The fogs had a standalone harness, the relay was under the bonnet - but I can't remember where
