Not the best video but ...meh. 🤷♂️. I’m indecisive sometimes
maybe indecisive but you get to the result...
Thanks a lot for this video mate. I’ll be taking mine out in the morning, painting them and have them back on by Sunday! My weekend job. Thanks again 👍
Hello, it is not the choice about the final color, even I agree about the cheap result with carbon, it is all the details you show us, to take every part off from the vehicule. A real professional tuto. I liked this and I would try to do it on mine.
Txs for sharing. And pardon my english.🙂
I love the honest nature of your videos - keep them coming buddy 👍
We used to do this at work we would remove all the fake wood trims from the dash and doors of Discovery 3s and paint them “piano” black looked much classier and was more popular with the buying public. Nice job 👍🏻🇬🇧
Loving the candy red the way it changes colour with the sun really good I like it keep up the good work.
It’s a great colour. Just a pain on the car if a panel gets damaged. Matching it in is a nightmare
Good as always, enjoy updates and watching your progress 👍🏼
Good job.. keep up the hard work 👌🏼👍🏼
The Red Color looks great 👍
Enjoyed the honesty. I liked the candy red BTW
Great video, I loved the mistakes/changes of mind and the final result looks sweet!
that red is incredible! the deep red looks smart but the bright red makes it pop
Yeah looks great on my mr2. I’m starting to think to spray the bottom half of the van in it.
One thing I love about your videos is that you put a smile on my face 😊 I totally agree about the carbon look so the red was the way to go. Despite your comments on the video, I liked it 👍🏻
Nice ...liked the orange and the cherry x
Your t-shirt design is so slick! Love it.
Cheers 👍😀
great work and really nice red color!!! Thx for video!
Good video, i can understand how its hard to choose, it feels like one of those things you can change many times because you never get done with a car
Looks good, might need to do the trim around the door handles to match now, and change the seat covers too.
Something special happening with the seats soon 😉
Nice vid pal worked for me . Nice final colour good choice. Keep it up
Glad it ended up ok. Was getting stressed with all the crappy turnouts lol
Lovely colour mate...keep the vids coming👍
Cheers 😀
It was a great help to me as doing just the same. Thank you 👍
Have faith mate looks good these vans are always a work in progress
I’ve got a massive list of stuff still to do. Then I’ll end up spraying the van a different colour lol
Just converted a t5 myself 390 photos later and still lots to do
Must say the red makes the dash pop like it loved the video one week and 4 colors later lol
Nice job will definitely be doing something like this on mine was wondering could you tell me where you got the anti slip mats for top dash pockets and if you have them in the door pockets haswell that would be a great help and would be greatly appreciated keep up the good work...👍
Cheers 👍. It was just a roll of it I found in the local supermarket, and cut it to size with scissors
@@SpyderLEE nice 1 mate hungry eye sees far..😉 you have to have your eyes open everywhere never thought of the supermarket but now that I think of it I have seen similar in my local hardware.. cheers 👍
Excellent job. What brand spray paint are you using please. Was it a direct spray or did you prime first. Thankyou. Awesome channel
Looks stunning ....same Colour as a Honda goldwing gl1500 at its best. .👍👍👍
loving that candy red it looks class only problem lee youll have to change your seats cos it just doest go mate get George on the phone right away !!! lol
Lol. They match in now with my new seats 👍👍
@@SpyderLEE aww right i noticed youd changed them when i saw another video . vans looking fantastic Lee pity the mileage is sky high cos it really looks like a new van .
Hi when removing passenger airbag cover does the airbag come out as well if so do you have to disconnect the battery first
what head unit have you got ? i have a 2005 transporter and want to upgrade the head unit. thanks in advance.
Mine is a pioneer avh-x5800dab but to be honest I’d recommend the Kenwood DMX8019DABS. Both aren’t cheap but I don’t really like the pioneer app radio bit. The Kenwood links to the phone better.
@@SpyderLEE Much appreciated, thanks
Totally the right choice! Carbon has been played 😂 love the candy red 👍👍👍
I thought that too about the carbon 👍
Could you advise how to get the connection off from the dash please. It’s not very clear to me.
You mentioned a product to dye the faded dash board in one of your vlogs. You said it was from halfords. Which product was it?
Good video nice one I now know how to get the plastics off to hard wire my camera 👍
Great video 👏👏👏
Very helpful 👍
Hi
thanks for this video as it is very helpful. Do you know how to remove the air vents on each side of the dashboard so I can spray the edges of the trim i.e. done a video on them?
Cheers
Simos
Whats the rocker switch for on the right ? Theres one on my van but dont have a clue what its for
Great video, sprayed my trims up today. Going to refit tmo. Noticed in the vid you’ve got a vinyl is it? On the doors by the door handle? Where could I get something similar?
Much better, great job
Thanks 😀
Nice job👍
What lacquer did you use as I tried something similar from a rattle can and the lacquer is cracking
Glad you didn't go with the carbon fibre, good job on the paint!
Nice Vid, would the Candy Red show through the Carbon dip?, does the peeps who do the Carbon dip, is there a Polished Wood Finish same as Rollers n Bentleys?
Yes I’ve seen carbon dipped stuff with a candy coloured clear coat on top. Looks good. There are dips for everything so will be a wood finish somewhere 👍
@@SpyderLEE wheres best place to get some ?
Thanks
Nice job, do you know what type.of spray paint I need to do a gloss black finish? Thanks
I just used normal car body spray and lacquer. Just make sure you use a proper plastic primer first 👍
@@SpyderLEE that's great thanks I'll have a go at this now 👍🏻
Where did you get your seat covers
How do you paint without it getting tacky and cheap looking? I've used spray paint before and it cherry blossom and both seem to get really tacky to the touch?
I used to be indecisive now I'm not so sure! nice vid if it doesn't feel right it's not right,it will just bug you.I was thinking of doing my dash it's about bland.
Hi what wheels are these on your transporter t5 please 😊
Hi Lee, what the vinyl paint that u said rubbed on. Was in Halfords there and guy was looking at me like I had 2 heads. Thanks
I’ve just searched and it doesn’t seem to be there anymore 🤷♂️
@@SpyderLEE thanks for the speedy reply. Do u know the name of it so I could get it amazon or eBay? Thanks
This seems to be the same stuff but I had a dark grey.

Looks great lee. Couple of questions for you if you dont mind. How did you do the stickers around the door handles? Also can you reccomend a decent plastic primer / paint for use at home? You've inspired me to have a go!
Hiya. The stickers aren’t great to be honest. I just cut them out around the handles with a Stanley knife. The plastic primer was just from Halfords in a spray can 👍
@@SpyderLEE cheers . Much appreciated
like watching an old black and white movie,could`nt realy see much but darkness
I like watching your vids and its always informative and inspiring. I'm going to look at an mr2 tomorrow might be making a mistake and buying it I'll let you know cheers mate
👍
I bought it! Hope its not a mistake. It's all original except for the stereo just have to transfer it into my name etc. I think it's burning oil have to wait and see going to be removing the precats asap and the idle is a little rough
Hi, where did you get the USB port from? Was it just plug & play? I would like to replace the standard cigarette lighter one on the top of the dash like yours? Thanks
The carbo fibre didn’t do the trick and looks a bit cheap. But on the other hand the candy red looks really good
Good video and colour. You should do some vw transporter tees!
I've just installed a kenwood KSC-SW11 under my drivers seat to add a bit more depth the the sound.
Cool I’ve got a 12” sub under the bed. I’d like to change for 2 12’s bring back my younger days lol. I’m going to do a design for the camper tee’s. I can wear relevant tee then for each vid 😀
@@SpyderLEE yeah 🤣🤣definitely. Nice wee bit boom going on there.
Any videos on modifying or ideas are always welcome.
So helpful thank you
Nice
Still an informative video regardless of you changing your mind. I' not a fan of red at all, but that's just my preference, but it still looks good what you've done!!
Thanks
Looks good 👌🏻
The best clear coat that you can get is the "OH MY" 2k clear from BuyCustomPaint.com. A HS clear that's really easy to spray with a high gloss, and doesnt require cutting or buffing and the small kits start at $30..... Definitely worth checking out...good video
might buy a t-shirt once I get less broke ;)
I really like it
I need to do a camper design too when I get time. 😀
Why not burr walnut?
Are you going to change your seats to match the dash trim?
It’s on list. I’ve got a much bigger list than money though 😞 lol
Mint
Good video. How did you paint your dashboard?
I used some vinyl paint. Just sprayed it on in really light coats so didn’t look wet
Was the orange original?
JOSH SMITH no, I did the orange last year.
Was I the only person to like the orange colour? 😂
The carbon look was just a fad that’s passing. It always looked naff. The paint looks good and it’s unique to you.
Yeah I thought that as soon as I saw it on
Keep getting something done....Must though ask, who painted those trims orange ??? Horrid !! great mistake with the carbon, but one dose learn by making mistakes, and the end result is perfect....Well smart VW mate...
The orange was me 😞. Saw someone’s on Facebook the same and thought it would look good. 🤷♂️
why don't you start again when the video is rubbish ? we came here for help .
