You kept saying you don't know what you're doing, but you're doing an awesome job.. I have a bare metal Caddy and am truly clueless but your videos have taught me so much already. New subscriber. I'm actually shocked you haven't got more subscribers, yours are some of the best amateur Caddy videos on RUclips. I'm not going to watch a Dan Chambers video as a novice and be able to use it as a tutorial, but these are follow able. Top work!
Check your rear doors on the inside, there is always water ingress from the outside. (Lock, windscreen wipers, etc.) That's why there are holes at the bottom that the water can drain off. You've blocked the path with insulating material and the trapped water is causing corrosion. Affects all doors.
How do you do that Darren ? Balance that basketball on those shoulders 😄 Brilliant video mate I'm doing same to my caddy too, just for spending odd night sleeping I'm back . All the best my man. Cheers
nice job there, reckon you couldve benefitted from some more thermal insulation taped to the roof, since the roof liner leaves a big old gapit could help fill, but good work
Have a look for a maypole awning light - work great as a task light when working in the van, rechargeable, two light modes and magnetic mount. Also the strip light cob led rechargeable head torches are also a game changer
It is a ball ache but something very satisfying afterwards but looking sweet so far mate will be a nice little van when done! Look up a channel called Dan Chambers on you tube he recently did caddy came out very nice! Defo up for a sticker for my slow van! Haha
It's a nightmare but the rewards are worth it! Me being a decorator i have pieced mine on! Didnt do full pieces just spliced together! Can't see the join!😍👍
@@tubedarren just ordered one of your stickers they look cool. I'll send one of mine to you free of charge if you like, just email your details no problem 👍👍
Nice work Darren, I feel your pain. I’ve done a couple. I must have missed some vids, what did you do with your transporter? Keep up the vids, they’re great!
Another great job mate how’s ya knees :) I covered my roof lining with a kids bed sheet:) I got stars, you could get marvel, Batman, peppa pig whatever you like 👍🏻

I totally agree 👍
Cracking job with an honest, hardworking opinion as to what to expect if you're gonna do it yourself - great film work too 👍

So what do you do not insulate the doors?
I really enjoyed how you did it anyway whilst not enjoying it !
The power of determination!
How do you do that Darren ?

Professional 👍🔥
Great job mate, enjoyed watching your video. Going to do the same with my berlingo van 👍
The rest is perfect

Thanks mate! Was a tough job, but was well worth it in the end😎👍 🍺

Totally right mate absolute ball ache haha but well worth it in the end. Okay cheers and got plenty of stickers available for slow vans 😆😎👍
Neat job 👏🏼
Agreed, insulating a van is a boring tedious task 😴
Thanks Adie and yes mate gets a bit much after an hour! Lol
Good job,I want a sticker and a hat,brilliant video I know it's a ball ache have done my caddy and my boys crafter,keep going dude ,and thanks
Cheers Del, you’re right there I can bet the crafters are a lot of hard work!! I’d not have the patience haha 😅👍
Tip on getting the holes flat; use a countersink drill bit. Takes 2 secs and keeps it nice and even.
Hey mate thanks which holes we talking about?!😅
or use a hammer, job done in a tap or two.
It's a nightmare but the rewards are worth it! Me being a decorator i have pieced mine on! Didnt do full pieces just spliced together! Can't see the join!😍👍
Well done mate I’m sure you can help me on the next one then 😅🤞🏼

Nice work Darren, I feel your pain. I’ve done a couple.
I must have missed some vids, what did you do with your transporter?
Keep up the vids, they’re great!
Thanks Ian and yes it is, gets a bit monotonous after a while 😅 I sold that T5 end of 2020, was good fun though enjoyed my time with that van. 👍😎
@@tubedarren loved the Europe adventure! 👍
Hi mate. Was 5x2m enough carpet. Thank you!
Where did you buy the sound deadening sheets from?
I am just about to insulate my T6. Now I don’t feel like doing it… 😩😩😁
Hahah sorry Ed didn’t wanna put anyone off 😭😂
Did you use smoke or graphite? 4 way stretch
Looks ace
Hi mate how much thermowrap did you use cheers
Where location buzzer sensor caddy tdi 2018 thanks
Another great job mate how’s ya knees :)
I covered my roof lining with a kids bed sheet:)
I got stars, you could get marvel, Batman, peppa pig whatever you like 👍🏻
Haha I’ve had a few days to recover 😅 sounds creative that mate, might Chuck some peppa pig up there 😂👍
For the odd shapes use cardboard and make a template
How long did sides of van take to carpet , gotta do mine and never done it before 🙈
Takes bout 8 hours to carpet!!
Is it warm enough mate?
Hi Fin for overnight use it was, did some camping in the summer was fine 👍
Should have drilled the whole out with a small step bitt then tape no Need to file and ruin the side of the wheel arch
Ruin? It’s covered 😆👍
At least it wasn’t raining 🌧
Very true dude 😅😎👍
Looking very good but I think carpeting looks a nightmare of a job to do
Thanks David, I won’t be doing it again that’s for sure haha 😅
