cant thank you enough Lee. I'm trying to finalize my to go plan for converting. I was in lots of doubts until finding you which make me know now what i want in my camper. Big love and lots of thanks to you Lee. your Big fan from Saudi Arabia 🤍🫶🇸🇦
Looking good mate, interesting how you creating soft lighting behind the panels, also the extra carpeting will act like sound deadening as well as insulation! Lot of work for sure but enjoy your methodology. Thanks for sharing in such detail 👍
Looking amazing! That blue piece you got that runs along the very back puller you could make a drop down section on that which would cover the door catches.
Hi mate, did you have to cut the mattress to fit into the corner near the rear light covers. I see in the video you said side to side in the recess it’s about 192cm but obviously will be less when you get in those corners. Your videos motivated me to buy a van and learning loads from what you have done. Keep up the good work, Steve.
I should be starting it this weekend as the spotlights arrived yesterday from auxbeam. 😁 photos will probably be on instagram before the video finds its way on here.
Great to watch ,but i would say i saw you using that non nonsense spray glue from screw fix ,i used that on my conversion an found that it was ok until mid summer when it got warmer an it started to come away an was tacky to the touch .I ended taking it all off an using the the high temp spray glue ,four years on an its never moved .Nice job your doing thanks .
I do like it, only thing that looks a bit out of place are the rear windows. I’d have either shaped the ply to match the window frame shape or had windows with rounded edges. I’d also say, paint the frames black - that’ll blend them in and they may look better. Good work on this tho, good watch that was.
Cheers Lee! This video is long, educational and entertaining. I also prefer long format videos, but that also means less videos... Nonetheless, awesome progress on the camper and I can't wait to see the finished product. Have you already made your maiden voyage? ;D
Love the build so for do u have a link 4 the hex leatherette? I'm doing some similar and yip it's the hex my drivers and passenger door cards are done in it and I was able to get match seat covers a bit pricey but worth it,
Abutting your bed to uninsulated metal on the rear pillars is likely to lead to condensation getting into your bedding materials. All-year and permanent CV-livers keep an air gap and obviously insulate all metal pillars to avoid this. If not with year-long habitation, especially with a high-sided wooden bed, leads to mould build up in the matress especially on the underside. Mould is never good. If your usage is week-ends stylie then dare say you can live with this. Presumably you aren't intending to spend the winter in the Artic! Enjoy the build format/YT coverage. Looks to be on track to be the van of your dreams!
There is plenty of insulation there that you didn’t see me fit. Some people also like to go over the top. Some of these all year rounder people have only built one or two vans. I’ve built hundreds without issues over the years.

Thankyou that’s great to hear 😁☺️
Another great video mate. I prefer the longer detailed videos on self builds especially when it's looking this good.
Cool, thanks
Great vid Lee. Don't worry about the length of video, was spot on. Some really useful, helpful tips! Look forward to the next one!!
Glad you enjoyed it
Love the longer more in-depth videos mate, really enjoying the build, can't wait for the next one already!
Glad you like them!
I could watch this for hours on end... great content.

Got to say what a fantastic job your doing so far it's going to look the part your finished which I can't wait to see .
Thanks 👍
Awesome vid lee the van is looking amazing well done buddy 👊👊
Thanks 👍
Looking smart! A nice mix of coverings but different to what others have done so makes it look fresh and modern.
You wait until you see the ceiling for the modern touch 😁
@@SpyderLEE Already seen it and commented on Instagram, loving the chevrons 😎👍🏻
Looking really good now. Love the materials and colour scheme you are using
Thank you! Cheers!

No mate. It just squished into the corners.
I see your vision now, looking awesome mate. 👍
Thanks ☺️
Can't wait to see your roof rack install. I'm looking to use unistrut too
I should be starting it this weekend as the spotlights arrived yesterday from auxbeam. 😁 photos will probably be on instagram before the video finds its way on here.
Looks amazing can’t wait to see it all finished
Me too!
Nice work, given me some good ideas for when I come to refit my ply panels I've too much carpet.
Yeah for some reason I don’t like carpet in this one but it seemed fine in the vw 🤷♂️
Top job. Love this build.
I'm glad you like it
Great work, boss . Looking great
Thanks ☺️
Great video pal well done look great 😊
Thank you! Cheers!

Cheers I’ll look out for that!
brilliant thanks for making this
No problem!
Well done, doing a real nice jot
Thanks ☺️
Another great video.
Thanks ☺️
Looking good that 👍
Thanks ☺️
Looking well 👌
Thanks 😊
Reinforce the bed brackets if I were you I’ve had to on my bed. The connection between the brackets and beam bends
One is now in Permanently, I screwed it through the beam and the bracket into the wood.
@@SpyderLEEsounds perfect loving this project by the way you’re doing a wicked job
Great long video
Glad you enjoyed it
I do like it, only thing that looks a bit out of place are the rear windows. I’d have either shaped the ply to match the window frame shape or had windows with rounded edges. I’d also say, paint the frames black - that’ll blend them in and they may look better. Good work on this tho, good watch that was.
I’m hoping I can wrap them black. It’s on my todo list for the end of the van. 👍
Its looking great. Where did you source the carpet and faux leather?
Leather was from iwantfabric.com and the carpet was just random eBay 4 way stretch.
Great Video! Everything is looking amazing. Was wondering if you can somehow paint or cover the white panels around the windows?
Hoping to try and wrap them later. Will be part of the finishing touches at the end. 👍
Great video - as usual. Have you considered spraying the window frames black or adding black vinyl to them?
Thinking of wrapping them later. 👍
Great video series, how are you attaching the wrapped blue panels to the van?
Sticks like shit clear 👍
Cheers Lee! This video is long, educational and entertaining. I also prefer long format videos, but that also means less videos... Nonetheless, awesome progress on the camper and I can't wait to see the finished product. Have you already made your maiden voyage? ;D
Still using the vw this one is still a long way off finished. Not going to take a maiden trip until it’s completely done
@@SpyderLEE As you have told in the first video in this series, the new Boxer camper seems to be quite an upgrade compared to old v-dub :)
Love the build so for do u have a link 4 the hex leatherette? I'm doing some similar and yip it's the hex my drivers and passenger door cards are done in it and I was able to get match seat covers a bit pricey but worth it,
It was from iwantfabric.com 👍
Cheers man it's the same stuff I used 4 my door cards , waiting on a sample from Harrison trim as there 1 is £32 a metre but with real stitching
Hi , where did you get the quilted fabric from in rolls , and how much if you don’t mind me asking ,
Cheers
Mark
Iwantfabric.com. Can’t remember how much it cost. I bought 15m and got loads left.
Can I ask where you got the HEX EMBOSED VINYL Mate
Iwantfabric.com 👍
