Although the seller I bought mine from doesn't exist anymore, but there's loads on ebay. I got 3528 LED strip.

Installed my new rear door handle today. Sure it'll come in useful.

Looks awesome so far. Would love to find out where or what the rear door handle came from. What is the part number?

Hi,
Can I ask how you fixed that ply side panel? Also are you intending to carpet the rear?
Cheers.

Re: Caddywupz Van Conversion
Already came in the van by the previous owner, screwed straight in to the van walls where there are raised sections as to not puncture the outer skin. So nothing special - just reusing old screw holes.

I'm keen to know about the rear door handle too! Very handy. Can you see a part number on it?

Re: Caddywupz Van Conversion
There's already a thread for the rear door handle on here. That's where I got all my part numbers from and called up my local TPS.

Re: Caddywupz Van Conversion
Thanks!
Been a while since I've done any work on it. Finally got some time to do some more! Just cut out my vinyl floor and hoping to stick it tomorrow. Once that's done, I Can make a start on building my bed. It's already had some design changes since the initial concept from the drawing, but still very similar.

Finally installed my vinyl floor. I wouldn't recommend using a sharpie to mark on it though... Fail. Looks smart though.
Also got all my trim back in. Can now officially start the design and build the bed.

Re: Caddywupz Van Conversion
Design has changed a bit from the initial concept, but it's pretty similar.
Been building the frame today. Hope to get it all together tomorrow and show you all what it loos like.
Fingers crossed my idea has all come together and there's enough clearance in the relevant places...
