Bloody gears went on the van this week only had 3rd and 4th so I took the gear selector off the gearbox and found the main slider had rusted itself together so with abit of lubricant and a hammer I managed to get it free and worked a lot of grease into it and now it's better than its ever been RESULT ! and saved myself around £400.

Hi
Turning my van into a day van maybe a camper so I've already 4 way carpeted the front including the head liner in black also trying to find a tourneo rear interior so then I can carpet the plastic cover pieces, but I have already installed some optical lights in the front dash and I'm planing to do the same in the rear as soon as an interior comes available if it doesn't then I'll ply it out myself but I would rather get the interior .

Hi
I found a complete set of plastic covers and door cards plus head liner for £150 but I did have to take them out of a mini bus myself .
So then I dry fitted them and carpeted everything that I could but I ended up not using any of the door cards as I had already ply lined the bottom panels , I also sound proofed everything and anything I could and the put in rockwool where I could which is very good for all the small tight corners etc .
I have light strips and I'm still waiting for the Taylor fitted black carpet which should be here tomorrow and the pedestal table which is black with an orange edge also have a black leather double seat with quick release and sliding rails that go right to the back of the van so I can move the seat where I need to and also they fold back so I can use them as 2 beds .
Still got alot more to do but I'll let you know once I've done more .
