Hi guys ,
thought i might start posting up some progress reports on my MK4 camper conversion
its a little bit different too what you would do , but i am a weekender camping person
so was designing a setup that worked for me , its been a labour of love
started off as a laundry van then a plumbers Van
when i got her she was a mess broken shockers needed new front sisspension bolts missing out of rocker cover ran like a pig then finally the auto gave in a month ago

so here i am hunted down a 2.5tdi 100hp 1996 plus a fully rebuilt factory moded auto transmission 100km on it yippee plus 2 spare epic pumps and alternator and computer and manuals
very happy after small drive to pickup 4500 km lol :roll:

so home after 2 weeks
stripped down electrics and removed lights radiator dashboard heater aircon

now about to swap out old DI ready for Epic turbo

thought while i was add it upgrade the dash and cluster to mk5 but having second thoughtss might just upgrade the instrument cluster have one of them lying around just need to find those elusive cluster connectors lol
