Rear door internal handle relocation on Citroen Relay / Ducato / Boxer / Promaster.
In this video I relocate the rear door handle on my Citroen Relay camper van. the same process and kit fits the Ducato, Boxer and Promaster.
When installing a fixed bed, the door handle in its original location usually then is at the same height as the bed frame meaning that, in an emergency, you cant open the door.
The kit came from Voyage Adventure Vans as a complete kit including the cable, ply template and fixing kit

Seems you use "ignition" and not D+ the difference is that with ignition active the generator may not yet run because the engine is not yet started. D+ active guarantees that the generator is running ensuring that your vehicle battery is not drained.
Nice one Sir I had exactly the same problem on my citroen relay those stupid bump stops 😂
Hi mate, briliant video, full of useful information. Could I just ask what size windows did you go for in the sliding door and on the opposite side please?
Hi, me again. Once again all brilliant, thanks. Just a quick question, what is the plinth for? I have a Peugeot Boxer. Is the plinth optional?
Greetings from Turkey. Is the material used on the ceiling wood or plastic, thanks.
Great informative videos, thanks. Just a random question, but you called some of the gas tank fittings P Clips. Is your background by any chance aircraft?
Thanks for the question and for watching. to answer your question: no not at all and if I remember, on the autogas website they were called P clips, hence where the terminology came from! I am guessing because they are shaped like a letter P?
Hello, loving your content and van build, just embarking on a L4H3 Boxer conversion. See in your driver cab area you have an additional pocket near the sun shades. Did that come as standard or bought separately?
Hi and thanks for watching. it was in the van when I bought it. It is apparently an 'extra' that can be ordered on new van sales? A double edged sword though as although they are great for our wash bags etc, it did cause some hassle for the remis blinds...
Where did you buy this kit from?? I’ve been trying to contact them through their website but cannot get a reply, just and automated response!!
Sorry, I dont know. their facebook page still seems fairly active so try making contact that way?
Hi, that link. no longer goes any where! Can you recommend some where else to get the larger drain taps. Thanks.
Sorry to be picky but I just did a google search for 'campervan drain taps' and the screen lit up with many options for suppliers of these? Magnum motorhome being one of them, try them perhaps?
Great video but did have trouble hearing what you were saying over that terrible music.
If I had a pound....
Hi , great videos , would you say 300 ah of batteries is adequate ,or would you go for more or less now you’ve lived with it for a while , thanks JOHN
Great question! if you cook with gas and heat with gas or diesel then yes, most certainly. if you go for a gas free build and cook on induction then I would go a bit more, at least 400ah or more if you have the space/money! my next van build will be gas free and i will go for a bigger battery bank.
@@wiltshirecustomcamper7203 Thanks for that , last question did you use a 40amp DC isolator switch from your solar ? . I have 400 watts of solar but am struggling to find a 40amp DC isolator , any ideas thanks.
tad and a smidge brilliant , i use a gnats cock.
I couldn’t watch because of stupid music
great comment, thank you! I will let Purple Planet know their music is stupid..
Hi just wonder if you know but why not splice a 12v switched fuse from the fusepanel as 12v d+ signal cable?
Certainly a possibility if you find an 'engine on' only feed and not just ignition on feed. thanks for the comment
Why do old camper vans smell like old camper vans? 😅😅😅 I think you asked the million dollar question, and gave a million dollar explination. Well done!
thanks a lot.
thank you.
Good to see you back again. Genuine honest guy, which is sadly not the case for many UA-camrs. Please keep making video.
Thanks, will do!
Nice to have you back 👍🏻
Fiddly job but well done. Moths have had a field day on your shirt 😂
😂😂😂 yes, perhaps its time for a new one. I do like to get my monies worth out of them..
Nice to see you back with van videos Good hack
thanks a lot.
@@wiltshirecustomcamper7203 Missed your videos
Where did you get the electric kettle from.?
Oh good question. It just came from my local camping shop, it is a low power 230v kettle.
Great video, thanks. Leaving the pole and fittings in place, I am going to remove the antenna on mine and replace it with my new Starlink Mini. I will also try to use the amplifier’s power supply to power Starlink now it is a 12v unit. Just need to refit a radio antenna…
good luck with the re-vamp.
Good to see you back! Van's looking great.
thank you.
Nice will be doing that upgrade as I have the same problem good to see you back followed you right from the start I am also a big fan of using Splodge lol 😂
Splodge is the answer to so many problems! thanks for watching.
Nice safety upgrade for the rear door. It’s great that there are kits for that sort of thing on your van. I got lucky with my Class B, that my handle is accessible with the bed in place. It’s great to see other video. Hope you enjoy your upcoming European trip. Cheers from the US.
Thanks Bret. best wishes.
Hi, that's a really helpful video. Can I ask a question though? How long are the seatbelt stalks that you fitted? When I've measured the ones on the double seat (one of which I would use) they look to be around 23 / 24 cm in length (end to end). I think this would mean they'll stick out too far through the seat. Hope you can help.
Uh! The stalk is from the double seat that was in the van. if anything I fancy it is a bit low and could be an inch higher in an ideal world. if you use the stalk from the double and do the same thing you should be fine. Oh, disclaimer! you should not copy what I did and it is not a 'how to' or 'tutorial' and is NOT SAFE! the video is for entertainment purposes only. now that's out of the way, good luck with it.
Best video seen to date on this topic
thank you
1. The drivers' seat are generally more worn out. 2. The armrest and lumbar adjustment are on the wrong side. Especially the armrest by the door is completely useless. 3. Standard single seat bolt should have been used for passenger's safety reasons. In case of an accident, the seat should remain in place and not fly out with the passenger through the windshield. The bolts should still be available at the dealership. 4. When playing with the seats, not being sure if the van is equipped with airbags and tensionners, the battery should be disconnected to avoid shortcuts causing potential problems with the airbag ECU and expensive repair. There is a special procedure on battery disconnection described it the owners' manual. 5. The seatbelts are different if the seat is equipped with a tensionner. So, as all drivers seat are equipped with it, the seatbelt clamp (?) won't fit if the van was not equipped with a passenger airbag and tensionner. Having those in mind (especially points 3, 4 and 5), I'd say the video is potentially dangerous and should not be considered as a tutorial.
1. who said it was a tutorial? 2. dont copy it then, simple. Do your own thing! 3. have you too much time on your hands for such a long comment (sorry, i meant moan?) best wishes...
@@wiltshirecustomcamper7203 Don't you understand that using a threaded rod instead of a specially designed bolt for fixing the seat can lead to severe injury or even death? Have you even thought of forces that those bolts need to cope with in case of a crash? Let's say 80 kg passenger + 30 kg seat at 100 kmh / 60 mph? If no, please do :P
looking to secure my citroen relay campervan, this was the video I needed! thanks for putting this together, all really great information, and the detailed instruction to help a novice like me take on the installing was exactly what I needed as well, many thanks :) great channel
Glad it helped
Could this awning be attched on edge of roof
You could mount it to the side of an appropriate roof rack for sure, but directly to the roof mounts you would need the F80?
Hi, what are the components near your water pump and accumulator, the components with the pressure gauges on?
Ah yes, good question. the pressure gauge is for the rear suspension air bags and the pump. the water system in that back corner is essentially just the pump, accumulator and the mini filter.
Hello. How did you workaround the rear fan not having enough distance for the wooden frame to fit (i.e. the gap between the support beams does not seem big enough?) Do you just screw into the metal support beams on that side rather than into the wood? Thanks
I dont recall having too many problems with the wood frame. it did need a little fettling but nothing too crazy. sorry that doesn't help much?
@@wiltshirecustomcamper7203 the gap between my roof supports is barely 400mm so was confused as to how you had the space for the frame if the hole was 400mm and then obviously the wooden frame means you need >400mm. We have the same van so in theory the roof support spacing should be the same as I am installing in the same place
Having reviewed the video, I recall now I used a thin piece of 12mm ply on one edge on the rear fan to complete the frame. it worked out fine and has been secure and not leaked.
What width is it..Cheers
I dont recall exactly without going to measure it but the whole thing about and the selling point of 'wood by post' is they make everything bespoke to the measurements you need.
Hi, copying your wall cupboards as very professional and just received my polyvision window. The sizes quoted are the actual cut size and include a 4mm allowance, but thanks for the warning. I also highly recommend pre tapping the screws as they are awkward. Love idea of using the frame to template the outer panel.
thanks for the comment. hope all goes well for you.
Hello, I have an H3 van and I'm trying to work out whether I put the awning on the side (F45) or on the roof (F80). I have a tall Vango drive away tent which says it's height is 255-295. I'm worried putting on the side like in this video would be too low. What would you recommend please? Thanks
If I was to do it again I would probably do a full roof rack to mount the solar panels on and as such, would seem sensible to mount the F80 to the side of it. I was worried about the height for operating it, but actually it would be fine (unless you are five foot nothing of course)
I am curious if you needed the hot glue and how that worked out?
seems to be fine, all the individual sections are still joined together and working so all good.
Very high quality video. Thank you.
Much appreciated!
Diy camper builders all seem to go down a black hole when it comes to insulation Inc you Let's put this into perspective No van or campervan on the planned is air tight Not one, if that was the case, People would die from a lack off oxygen. And with every justification to insulate. I can counter that argument because no one touches the cab area That's a 3rd off most vans If it was ubba critical to have to insulate or prevent heat loss, moisture etc etc at the back, why does that go out off the window when it comes to the cab Taking a realistic approach is something I've not seen by ANYONE
Thank you for the comment. perhaps for the benefit of everyone that reads the comments, you could elaborate on your ideas of a 'realistic approach' as it is good for lots of peoples ideas and suggestions, both good and bad with this topic.
Still here only got it after four years no vacation, and got it only once, my friends have all had all the jabs and had covit twice or three times one mate had all the jabs about five of them and had covit at least three times , and remember by the time you found out that you had it , you were still going to shops etc , giving it to others.
Only had it the once to my knowledge, and once was enough I think. horrid virus!
@@wiltshirecustomcamper7203 agreed.
This is an amazing video Watched heaps of bs videos but this video is real And a quick question here about the master fuse, on 4:48 What does it call? What should I search on google to find it and what do you mean by the appropriate fuse size for the battery size?
it is an MBRF terminal fuse. try this link. www.12voltplanet.co.uk/blue-sea-systems-5191-mrbf-terminal-fuse-block-30-300a.html
Thanks very much!! Great vid
thank you.
Very informative and useful video! Please could you tell me how long you left the soudal carbond to cure before continuing with fitting the window? Cheers
Overnight as I recall. thanks for watching.
Looks fantastic hope I can match when I start mine soon,have you got a parts list toilet ,sink tambour door
2 years ago we converted a brand new Iveco Daily L4H3 which we now live in. That wasn't the plan originally but after two 90 day trips to Europe we hated being in a house. We stop warm air from touching cold metal by sticking foil bubble wrap to every inch of metal on the inside. We then insulated it with wool. 2 years on, a season sking in the alps and 2 summers in 30 degrees plus and we would recommend that method to anyone. We have no damp and the only condensation we get is on the windows of the cab.
Any issues with the angle of the roof? Some people have said you have to use specific brackets given the lean on the upper side of the roof (i.e. it leans inwards). But then I can’t see any H3 ducato specific brackets on fiammas website anyway
not really been an issue, a couple of times it has caught right at the end just a bit, but by winding it in and out again it clears so has been OK for me. I too heard about these brackets but never found them. if really concerned I think you could use spacers or washers with the existing brackets to gain a little bit extra. hope that helps.
Can i ask you your experienvce on those Thule Cab locks? - i have found very little review out on tinternet about them. Do you think they are effective if say a window is smashed would the internal cab lock being a keylock prevent an intruder easy egress again, only the smashed window being available.
Um... I think they are more a visual deterrent for the opportunist. yes they lock, yes they hold the door but wouldnt cope against a crowbar very well I dont think. for me they work well as I have the deadlocks for when I'm away from the van and the thule cab locks for overnight when I'm in the van. i dont use the deadlocks overnight for 'escape' reasons should something happen and you need to exit quickly. Ive just thought that the front door deadlocks are not in the video, if not then I did fit them afterwards...
Where did you get your door catches if you dont mind shareing
www.evomotiondesign.co.uk/
why don't you use the cigarette lighter for the dc dc charger as a relay, I see pointless all that work destroying cables from the ignition system, and all the work involved !
A very compelling argument and perfect timing for me to stumble across it, cheers dude
Glad it was helpful!
