THANKS! I was looking for seatbelts for long time and everyone were asking a lot for them until i found this place where they custom built them and it came out even a bit cheaper than used ones. It was hard to find since they needed to be a bit longer than normal ones.

There will be a surf board that's cut to half over the knobs and it will be used as a table. First knob is to turn on the "worklight" behind the car (if you grill around the car during night, you get some light) and second turns on the lights inside the car, third is free/option (might add few small led lights to the edge of floor --> light over the walls - tried it and looked really nice, but still under consideration, maybe too much) and forth knob turns on the heater/radiator blower that you can see between those electrical boxes.

I was considering of making this all wireless and putting a remote that could be used to control these all, but as the car is old, I thought this is more propriate, would come out too "high tech". Should've maybe located these also elsewhere, but when the board is in place, they are under it and not so visible.

Now I need to decide whether I should invest into a small fridge (would cost around 500 €, bit too much, but it would be a nice addition during hot summer nights!) Another thing would be a heater that could be used during winter when car is stopped, but it comes expensive as well and I don't know if I will use it that much during winter.
