Thanks Michael , So great to hear you’ve “stolen” some of my ideas. The only thing I enjoy more than sharing these design ideas is coming up with them. Best of luck with your creation and the adventures that make it all worthwhile. Cheers Victor EZ

My interest is in design and build but not manufacturing. The Victor EZ micro^camper is aimed at those who don’t have the sophisticated tools and skills required to build version one. Basic tools and materials are all that will be required, anyone should be able to build this one . That is my hope.

@ thanks for responding! Okay I’ll give it a try myself thanks for coming up with the idea and sharing 💙

I’m in Paris at the moment but will get back to it when I get home . I’m sure you can do it.

Lots of solutions glue muffs to the camera . This is a clean way to add sound dampening and I found it very effective. I haven’t used my RX100 in years though . Too bad they never put an audio jack on the IV . Best of luck. V

A necessary tool along the way. Hope you’re having fun out there!

Hope it works for you. Cheers

If you watch the video we suggest going from the inside so you don’t have to remove the arm. I used a puller to get it off before I realized it wasn’t necessary. Best of Luck

No problem 👍

Glad you got a laugh Cheers V

Don’t think I shot how they come off. But like taking anything apart you just keep undoing things til it comes loose. The rear hatch lower cover has to come off first , three screws and clips . All the panel screws are inside covered holes, pry open the plastic cap. The square tiedown loops have to be removed . Couple on pins on the inside lower edge, plus one screw on the inside on the rear door. Peal back the rubber gasket at the back and side doors and it should be free. I little prying here and there will release it . If it doesn’t seem to move check that you didn’t miss a screw somewhere. Good Luck

Heh Silas , Thanks for dropping by. Tank is getting pretty low …hoping for rain. Elements Rule …V

Good luck with yours … mine really worked out …this year a few touchups on sides and looks better than new.

Thanks I’ll let you know

That would be too funny . I put my ticket in for Thomas because he really wanted the “ammo can “ and got it . What’s a Canadian going to do with an “ammo can “ ?

@@victore6941 Really random that I see this video, and you show Reese winning. I wished him luck.

Thanks hope it helps .

The bed appears in multiple videos, perhaps try The Victor E Tour Ep 14 Chasing the Dragon. The earlier series Elemental Evolution has a couple of Episodes on making the bed. We just got back from two weeks on the road , Elements on the Dragon meetup. Nothing has changed with the bed design although we are refining how we used it. Let me know if you can't find the info you want and I could explain it.

Always a pleasure....just back from Elements on the Dragon....what a great event !!!

We couldn’t get a spot there , will check around when we arrive today

Heh Chuck , Made it back home!!! Hope you recovered….you probably need a vacation now! Cheers Victor E

@@victore6941 I wish I could stay on vacation, but nope I got a whole house painting job to get to. See you next year at EOTD

Work can really get in the way… you take care my friend…we’ll meet again

It would be a write off anywhere else! Real weak spot on CRV/Elements. But the recall warranty bracket fix held the whole thing together to ride another day. Thanks to ingenious Mexican talent.🙏🙏🙏

@@victore6941 I'm impressed... my element got the brackets installed 2 years ago, how long between your recall work and the break?

Mine were about two years ago ….but you’re not thinking of driving the Copper Canyon …are you?

We’re in the salt infested Canadian winter …that really takes a toll.

​@@victore6941 I think I'll do a Canadian tour along the Saint Lawrence with my bike.

We had shredded the front tires on the rough roads , if you call them that. The driver’s side air bag had deployed and the front tire disintegrated.We put the spare donut on which has next to no tread. That doesn’t give you a lot of traction on loose steep rubble on a hard base of smooth rock. Every Mexican gave it a try anyway….love those people! Not sure if our rear axle was gone at this point as well.

Loved that camera! Haven’t used it for years though.😦

Glad you’re getting some ideas , best of luck with yours, Cheers V

Glad to have you along! Cheers V

Thanks Eric, Great question….maybe I could answer with what I would do again. No 1 remove spare tire to gain space for fridge below bed frame. No 2 Use the back seat mounts for the bed frame tracks to allow 9” of travel front and back. No 3 Make the bed collapse into itself, slatted and allow the back to fold in two pieces , one 8 and one 16 “ . No 4 Get a roof carrier and attach an awning ARB works great, plus the add on room 8 x 8 x 6 ft. No 5 Use storage containers that fit in the back and also under the bed, these get transferred when you go into bed mode and want everything inside. Used for food and cooking storage . That gives you the basic setup. I wouldn’t bother with the Solar shower …just didn’t get much use and some places don’t let you use them. Ventilation, bug screens , heater plus a good power supply , Ecoflow River Pro plus spare battery 1440 wh with 160 W solar panel and car charging works. Insulated window blinds all round included moon roof a must. Lots of power outlets 12V , USB and 110 V plus ceiling pot lights. The swivel seat from Hiros is also a game changer but expensive. Best of luck with your build. I’ll think on that idea of a video pulling it all together. Cheers V

Check out …….the Victor E Tour ~ Joshua Tree ~ The Six Week Verdict ~ Open House #hondaelementcamper ruclips.net/video/K-17Pc5N4tA/видео.html

Thanks so much, very kind. I actually have a lot more footage I never got to. So great to hear you’ve enjoyed it . Never even got to losing the transmission in Zion , having to leave the Element in Utah, returning 4 weeks later to resume the trip and that stretch was one of the most breathtaking parts of the tour.Take Care Happy Trails V

The exact model is in the video ....it's ARB 2500 x 2500 Black Aluminum....they are GREAT and well made.

Thanks ….sometimes it’s better not to ask whether you should do something…nobody told us not to …so what the hell …we just headed into the unknown naively…the Element is a pretty tough little beast! Cheers V

Thanks so much , I always use Baltic birch plywood…very strong for its size so you can keep things thin and lightweight…it also finishes well especially the edges.Cheers V
