Fitting Amarok Roof Bars & Cross Bars
In this video we're installing a set of Amarok Roof Bars. I decided to go for black roof bars on this to match the bars already installed on the Truckman cab.
I needed to install a set of cross bars so we could carry sheet material occasionally. If you're thinking of carry sheet material or using the roof rack on a daily basis I would definitely recommend getting a commercial rack. This type of roof bars and cross bars are OK for looks and occasional carrying (up to 40kg) but would want something more substantial if I were to use them on a daily basis.
Tools required are a screw driver, drill, step drill bit and a hex key or socket.
Simple job that will take 20-30 mins for the roof bar. W...

Black To Polished Bars - VW T6 Side Bar Replacement
Просмотров 4566 месяцев назад
STOP!!! Before fitting side bars to your van, always consider the material the bars are made from. Sometimes cheap isn't always best! And in the long run can end up costing you more than buying a quality set in the first place. When choosing side bars for your VW Transporter T5 T6, Ford Transit Custom etc... find a pair made from quality stainless steel for longevity. If polished isn't your thi...

Van Creations VW T6 Bayside Camper Conversion Walkthrough
Hi. I'm fixing my belts in but I'm missing the washers, what size are they both please? Great clear video by the way!
Hi, can you tell me approximately how long it took to put together?
21 min. 37 sec.
Looks great 👍
Thanks 👍
We’re based in Dorchester Dorset! I’m presuming by your username we could be 6 hours away unfortunately!
Need this what area pal
Lad , if some dickhead is hitting my van with a hammer i think id rather hear it. This stuff is a con job. Fill a van with insulation, ply and carpet then all your crap on top, this shites not making any contribution to sound.
I noticed that you drilled a large hole in the floor aswell as in the footwell? What is the hole in the floor for please as I want to install one of these, many thanks
Hi, The hole in the drivers side step is for the air inlet, the hole through the floor is for the hot air outlet. On this particular van the customer wanted the heater outlet to come up through their custom box and then mounted flush in the side. We would usually drill a hole under the drivers seat to come up through with the hot air outlet and moun the vent in the rear of the drivers seat base. Alternatively you can install an internal mount heater under the drivers seat. Many Thanks Simon
@@VanCreationsthanks so much for taking the time to explain, thanks for the vids, best regards Ant
Black looks so much better chrome makes it look cheap
Great video - I was looking for info on how to swap out the old for new night breakers and this made it super easy- many thanks!
Hi, glad it helped. We tried to make it as easy as possible but sometimes it’s difficult to get the camera in to get a good angle!
How much does it cost do the same to a t4
Thanks for this. I have the original windows in my LWB, which I need to replace. Do you have a link for the cheese wire cutter and handles you use please?
Sorry for the delay, things have been hectic. We use a tool set from amazon, currently using Satra tools. Silverline do a similar kit which can be purchased from Screwfix. We've tried others in the past but these ones work well and last. I recommend purchasing some decent windscreen removal wire if you are doing it on a weekly basis!
Shame it’s the most mundane u shape set up ever 🤣
Thanks for the feedback. Everyone is different with different tastes. This customer wanted a practical solution for how he uses the van and was built to their spec.
What’s the approximate cost for a pop top roof install?
Hi, For a Transit SWB with roof bed, carpet lining etc.. it usually comes in around £4-4,500 inc vat
It’s true, my black bars are rusted to hell and back. One came off the front hinge recently, my wife had to bring my 18v multi tool so I could cut the rusted bolts/brackets off by the side of the road. I looked into it and was told mine rusted because I didn’t have mud flaps, your van has them so that’s BS then.
Hi, Sorry to hear you had the common issues. Mud flaps do help a lot as they reduce stone chips to the front of the bar. Without mud flaps, as soon as you drive for a few weeks, you will get stone chips on the front of the bar and rust will set in. Definitely better with the powder coated stainless steel ones as they do last longer.
hi how do I convert from t6 to t6.1 LED headlamps? where can I get the adapter?
Love it. Perfect if you dont need to take passengers. Much better than rock n roll
A very sociable setup, ideal for 2 travelling but yes, you do lose the belted seats in the back!
Niec one pal. How did you removed old adhesive?
On this particular window replacement the adhesive just peeled away, literally that easy. The primer was also poorly applied so we could remove it with a soft wire brush and start again! If your bonding is adhered to the van and is good then you can cut I back flat, leave it and apply Dinitrol 520 glue cleaner activator and then bond over the top!
Great job very professional
Thanks 👍
Good video,
No, there is only one system that works R&R bed, swivel double seat, everything else is complete rubbish.
Quien va a saber si es cierto lo que están haciendo Haci tan rápido
Yes I like it. Only two observations from me, 1 floor ring for table to go into & 2 be able to take the seat out at rear to get my motorbike in. Good design 🏆👍
Yes, if it was mine I would have a sequoia table mount on the floor with a removable post so we could have a little table. With regards to the seat removal. You could remove the rear and left hand bench part without too much trouble/time, the right hand bench wouldn't be removable in this particular build as all the electrical component and leisure battery are installed in that location. It's all done to the customers build spec and everyone is different and required different uses which is the great things about these builds!
@@VanCreations Hi, Thanks, yes after this video I watched another one of yours with centre seat removal which is great. I love the 240 hook up under rear light. Fantastic. Any where we don’t need to drill holes in van is a great idea. 👍🏆
Hi, if you were fitting a triple rear seat what brackets would you use? Is it the simple L type brackets or the brackets which sort of frame around the cross beam?
Hi Eddie, Fitting a bench triple in the middle row requires the larger type brackets. The smaller L shape brackets are used on the far outside brackets of a 2+1.
I love this setup, this is what we're getting. I also love the idea of a power outlet in the back - if you've got a hookup, you could easily use that for an electric grill!
Hi, Yes you could install 240v or 12v sockets along the back as there is plenty of room for them! Simon, Van Creations
Thank you for your video. You made it so clear how everything should go
Thanks! I hope this helped explain the install. We try out best to make it as easy as it can be! Good luck! Simon - Van Creations
oh dear, new tyre time
Yeah, unfortunately but that's motoring for you!
Just a question do you put any waterproofing etc around the brackets???
No we don't. Same as the VW factory built Kombi's. We do treat any bare metal from drilling with primer/sealer. You could put a bit of sealant around the holes prior to the brackets going in but we've never seen any water ingress from this area in retro fitted or factory Kombi's.
I just fitted mine to my T6, By my self, on my drive . I used levelling ramps to jack one side up at a time, make it so much easier, I just loosened the edges of the cavorting pans, there plastic on mine, just held them down with a bit of 2x2 timber, I pre loaded the split pin thingys that go on the bolts that go into the chassis by just knocking them on a couple of threads down form the bolt head then just bend the ends down slightly so they don’t go into the chassis hole, they soon pull up tight when you tighten it up, piece of cake, I didn’t cut the bolts nor th3 pans where they hit the bolt because the plastic pans just bend round the bolts when tightened. Took me 2 hours at a leisurely pace. No hurry. I’m retired. And 74.
I’ve just upgraded my builds,Good enough and cheap £18 Fitted, Halfords, Job done, more beer money saved.
Great video, thank you for doing. My new V3 lights arrive today so I'll be doing this at the weekend. One Q for you please, is there any alignment of the headlights required? Or is this the bulb rotation you talk about?
Sorry, only just seen this comment. You can adjust the beam height/LR with the two screws on the back of each headlight!
Cut the bolts off much easier , can alway more bolts.
Great point! Thanks for the feedback! Many Thanks, Simon

Merhaba, ben Türkiye’de yaşıyorum o farlardan satın almak istiyorum yardımcı olabilir misiniz
Merhaba, Bunları ülkenize gönderip gönderemeyeceklerini öğrenmek için TransporterHQ ile iletişime geçmeyi deneyin. Saygılarımla Simon
Will these fit also lhd?
Hi, I believe they are available in LHD, Your would need to contact TransporterHQ and ask. Regards Simon
Very Good vid; much appreciated, why don’t you just cut off the excess bolts with angle grinder, ?
Do you do skylow for ford custom ?
How do you get into the top roof bed? Is there a ladder?
Hi Chris, Your rotate the passenger seat and then can step up on the seat and boost yourself into the roof bed. It's not too difficult to do. Regards Simon
Very nice demo. We are thinking of getting a motor home soon.
Go for it if your can. Nice to be able to use for days out or weekends/weeks away. We use ours more for days out than camping but its so handy to randomly stop at a beach on the way home and have food and drink whilst watching the sunset. Regards Simon
Are the new ones original VW parts? It does not need any programming?
The new ones are Aftermarket lamps from TransporterHQ. These are the V3 LED Headlights.
Hi, can you tell me what size pop rivets you used please?
Hi, 4.8 x 16mm or 5.0 x 16mm will be fine. Simon
@@VanCreations Thanks Simon. I have 4.8 x 14mm stainless steel rivets. These should be fine!
What happens to the Ariel?
Hi, You can relocate the aerial to the inside near the pillar or install a DAB aerial. You can also buy a relocation kit. Simon - VC
Et pas de codes d'erreurs au tableau de bord?
Hi, No error codes with the THQ bulbs. Simon
Hello, what size are the screws that go to the bodywork? And large? (Have the bars but don’t have the screws)
my bars have two threaded bolt holes a few inches along the bar, So not sure which fitting kit I need
Hi, You will need to speak to where you purchased your bars from. Usually side bars come with the fitting kits from the manufacturers.
What do you mean by the last part of how to ensure there are no black spots and rotating the bulbs? Is this something you could show too please? Very helpful video. Thanks.
Hi Thanks for your comment. After installing the headlights, you can park your van face on from a wall/fence etc.. Depending on the position of the bulb, you can sometimes cast a shadow(black spot) where you would want a clean light pattern. If you reach behind the headlamp to the back of the bulb you can rotate it slightly and watch on your wall the shadow move out of eye line. You are trying to create the cleanest beam pattern you can for the best vision at night. It's a little bit tricky to explain but I hope this helps. Next time we install these headlights, I will see if we can do a video on the set up! Cheers Simon
Is that 4 inch ducting?
Hi Chris, This is 60mm Ducting for heater inlet and outlet. On the bigger heaters you can use a 90mm Ducting. Many Thanks Simon
Hi would it be possible to have the seats the opposite way around ? So the single is behind the driver and the double bench seat is next to the side loading door? Thanks in advance James
Hi James, You wouldn't be able to have UK seating the other way round as the seat belt receptacle and levers on the single seat would be on the wrong side and the seat is offset so I can't see that working. Also the belt and receptacle on the double would also be wrong. Best Regards Simon
What about 3 single seats ? Is that an option? Thanks
Hello, thanks for this video. I have a question . I have a new T6.1 , not a 4motion , Is it possible to install the bigger Goodridge tires with the standard Van hight ? Most of the video's you see instalation of +3.5 cm righthight ore by the 4motion Van . I wonder if I can install these rims and tires on my standard Van and no issues with rubbing the tires on the Van... Thanks for your movie !
Hi Steven, The van in this video is a non 4Motion. This one was running 245/65/17 with no issues. Just go careful not to go too big or too wide with the AT Tyres as problems can occur when moving into 18” or bigger.
