Hi Rob62. How is the van progressing?

The passenger side was a doddle to fit just 4 bolts to undo and a bit of trimming to the outside plastic seat trim.. The drivers side is a bit more awkward to fit, the whole handbrake assembly needs to come off as well as the seat, also the battery cover needs to be trimmed otherwise the swivel plate won’t sit down properly, even after trimming i had to space the swivel base with some washers (about 6mm). No trimming required as the drivers seat is height adjustable. But the whole handbrake cover has to go as the bracket needs lowering. I painted the metal bracket black and it looks ok.
Yes I still have the luggage racks, they are amazingly solid, you could swing from them. All the brackets are there plus the roof lining which is different to a plain roof lining. Make me an offer!
Still have all the seats too.... they all need to go or they’re gonna end up in a skip
Rob62 wrote:Hi John, no problem.. I do have all the brackets nuts, bolts and all, but I’d prefer to sell as a complete assembly.. otherwise I fear the luggage racks will be useless without the correct brackets and i’ll end up having to bin them. Do you also have the correct roof panels with the cutouts to suit the racks? I can do you a deal on the job lot
