    Just fitted mine. Wish I could offer any more advice but it's just a pig of a job to remove old grill. Those lower clips don't want to play nice. Worth it though 👌

      I poured a boiled kettle over the areas where the clips are and the grill popped off without any problems. I had more problems getting the new grill to clip in, but got there after a few sweary words 😅

    That’s one smart looking van so much so I’d be tempted to cross into the dark side from previous Relay and Boxer conversions
    Could you sleep across the van ie does it allow for a 6foot bed?

    • @MispronouncedAdventures
      @MispronouncedAdventures  2 года назад

      Thank you! I love the transit base van, it’s got its quirks and a lot of curves but you get used to when building. I’ve worked on relay and been in a few boxers. The transit still tapering at the top but you could have A sideways bed depending on how high you make the bed and how tall you are
      As for the 6 foot bed. It’s possible I think my bed is 185cm ( wall to wall ) but as I’m 6’1” it’s not ideal for me so I sleep lengthways
