In this video I was asked to go see @trimportersvanconversions6973 and help on a little van conversion, converting a 2008 vauxhall combo van into the crew van, basically turning the van from a 2 seater panel van into a 5 seater crew van with windows. The plan was to find seats from a similar shape corsa or astra and then remove the seats and install on the combo, however as luck turned up on the day Russ found a non-runner combo crew van, a van that had the seats and brackets that would fit exactly as it should from factory.
We set about removing the false floor from the original van and cleaning everything before moving on to remove the seats, belts, mounting points, etc from the donor van. We test fitted the seats, found the mounting points, then tacked it in place with my 25+ year old welding machine. Once we were happy I then fully welded the mounts in place.
Moving on we fitted 2 side windows and then added 2 windows in the rear barn doors, the rear windows had a slight green tint and they didnt match the side windows so I went ahead and tinted the rear windows with 20% carbon tint.
Russ then done an amazing job of carpet lining the rear of the van along with the roof lining, and finishing the back off with some heavy duty rubber matting.
The van then had a full valet and was ready for customer collection.

How much would this set me back?
Where do you get the back windows from ? I'm struggling to find some for this van . Thank you
Brilliant looks mint my side door wont open can you tell me the problem thanks
All that unused space under that metal......
Hi do you know if the Corsa C rear seats would work for this conversion they look the same and would be ideal as they are far more common than the original combo rear seats thanks
the same as an opel combo crew van
looking for rear seats in a 04 Ford connect, no extras just seats and belts any approx price ?
Bakan, voy a revisar mí combo van si puedo hacer algo al respecto
Hiya mate. I’m thinking on doing this. Is the seat belt bolts built in on the floor where your bum goes and how does the seat belt hold on to the van for the end passengers as there is no bolt thread there to hold it. Many thanks
I'm thinking of doing this with my combo. Does it need to be inspected by someone? Obviously dont want to get points or anything for carrying more passengers
Na we didn’t have it inspected by anyone, as far as I’m aware this is all above board totally fine, if it’s not safe enough it’ll get picked up on an mot, do it properly and it’ll be great
Great job guys. Did you board the roof first? Also what carpet did you use for the roof and sides? Did you spray glue the sides? Thanks
👍 I’m not sure as I only came in to do the welding fit the window and do the tinting
You do this to an Astravan mk4? cash there 😂🤷🏼♂️
Anything’s possible for the right amount of money 😂
Where you located?
Where you located?
Where did u get the side windows from ?
I'm sure not, Russ from Trimporters van conversions ordered it all
I have just bought combo c tour and need to remove back seat. I figured out how to do it with bottom part, but don't hawe idea how to do it with backrest. Can you give some hint?
Yeah the bottom part, you need to undo the bolts from the centre bracket, and there is an Allen key bolt that goes through the bracket sideways into the seat, remove that and it should come out
@@TwiggsT4 thx a lot, I will try
Hi what did you use to stick the window in?
I can’t remember which window adhesive we used on this build, some windows come with a fitting kit and some you have to get separate. You can get fitting kits from camperglass.co.uk or any other window suppliers
Does somebody tried this on doblo 2010?
