I Like, what is in the back looks like they have built it so it has a cupboard or storage there, also what is the roof lined with looks quite good from your photos.

Cheers

Yes there was storage for the riot gear the roof is a thick plastic sheet with 12v lights the panels on the wall are thick plastic as well it was done well riveted in will have to remove the roof and the walls to insulate it then put it back and carpet changing the lights to led.

This is what it looks like with the seats back in and table up I have fitted a chrome bar to the roof for spot lights and a place to hang my cloths lol.

Hi all
After looking at my dash wiring as there is a lot of switches and buttons I found a push button start one turn key on then press button she starts right up I am happy just forget to use it as when I put key in I just turn it on so have to turn it off and start it again with the button lol

[Riotvan2016]

Think I will have to take the dash out and start again with all of this wiring

I got beaten up by a load of blokes that came out one of those vans at Leyland festival once
