Bed is a piece of piss mate, more than welcome to come take measurements pics or what ever lol the springs was from ebay for £50 with free p&p and still has all the comfort of standard to.

Now wheres the pics of your t4 then and what engine ?

Cheers mate, I work part time for a company called Trans4mit, he got me the carpet.
It's called veltrim and is mega stretch, awesome stuff and cost me about £100 for 10 metres with glue.


Wiz thanks for the nice comment mate just a shame about the outside lol

Thought it was about time i updated this thread lol

Been busy with building the inside and will be registering as a camper soon, already in contact with dvla and only need the table fitting and water supply sorting.

Anyway this was after me and jj built the unit for down the side

L-W My t4 lwb 803462_10151320636066039_451362880_n

I then ripped out the crap lino which was meant to be hard wearing and ripped with in a week of laying it, thin as card board. 
So back to laminate it was.

L-W My t4 lwb 909266_10151359869461039_20866236_n

The step is also now done to match but forgot that pic.
