This is what we like an extra midweek video. That tailgate chair pod is a brilliant use of space. Van really coming on. Enjoy!
The tailgate pod is kind of a copy of the genuine vw one fitted to the California
Great designs of the upgrade items. Happy camping
Hi Dan, van is looking great. Could you drop a link for the solar panel please? its just what I'm looking for.
Nice update on the van Dan 👍👍 that chair store is a game changer 🤘🤘
Loving your content Dan from building your unit to the budget polo and throwing in work on T5 now and again. Works very well for me, good luck on getting 200k you deserve the audience with your work ethic.
Can't get enough of your channel, shame there's not more, been going over all your old stuff 😁
Nice interior. And the tailgate panel holding the chairs....awesome!
Nice work Dan, that panel supplies a kw every five hours of direct sunlight which is not to be sniffed-at!
Wheels, ride height, colour.... its a nice van.
Great to see a mid week video, it's coming together nicely 👍👍
Hey Dan big thanks for doing a midweek video with some great content as always, the T5 is looking good and progressing but a conversion like this takes time and there is no point rushing it as mistakes will happen, the solar panel fitted a treat on the roof and doesn't look out of place due to the nice design of the wire coming out of the back, looking forward to the next one👏👍
Thanks very much Dan for showing all this, well done!
Your spoiling us Dan.. a midweek upload 😂 could get use to this extra content to watch 😂 T5 is coming along nicely 👍
Nice, extra Vid!. Love the content Dan
Really liking this build Dan keep up the good work👍
Another lovely update dude
Loving that chair pod
Very nice Dan love the mix of the polo and your adventure van content. Look forward to seeing the interior being fitted out.
This is going to be an amazing campervan when it's all done mate. Love it!
Most splendid vanny goodness'
Boom love it bonus content!
Great video again Dan. Think you were 2 along from me at early edition.
I've got same panel, I went on inside of material such a good way of installing. I used tigerseal
The Solar panel looks like a much better then the semi flexible panels that you can get. I really don't like the idea of having the two cables sat on the top on the panel which are exposed to possible damage. Saw one of them come of a van a few years ago. Plus I would like to try and replace on as they tend to be covered in adhesive that would be a mare to get off, I would imagine.
The Chair Pod is a great idea for tailgate vans, not seen them before.
The solar panels looking smart 👌🏼 what model is it?
Vans looking great dan, bit different to the first t5 you did on the channel 😂
Nice to see some progress on the van mate.. what's your plans with the unit? You wrapping, painting or veneering it?
Wooo Cornwall, where abouts in Cornwall are you heading?
Hi Dan, Can you send a link to the solar panel - learning so much from you, and the products you use seem to be the best!
Great video. I have considered a solar panel but Skyline and others say they only last 5 years so my concern would be removing the panel when it’s time to replace. The set up you have uses a bond to the roof will that be removable in future?
Great video and love your enthusiasm. What happened to your Crafter, have you sold it?
Great build Dan , can I ask which episode it the bit where you’ve made that bit just inside the tailgate , I want to build similar to house my rear speakers 🤟🏼
Great progress Dan, I agree that the solar panel looks a lot better then having the cables exposed on the roof, I’ve got the same style although only 160w ( it fitted better on the standard metal roof ridges)but a great bit of kit, loving the chair pod as well, so much more convenient and never needing to make sure you’ve packed chairs also easier to access after a long drive👍🏻I’ve got the California version that is also a great bit of kit but a lot more bulky that the VS one, are you adding the door card with the built in table for even more versatility.loving the midweek video, it breaks the week up 👌🏻
Could you point me in the right direction for that style solar?
@wandango I’ve got this style of solar panel (200w), how long have you had it?, had mine just over a year and it’s failed already!.
@@AJR8332 fitted august 2020 never had any issues
@@wandango5913 thanks, probably just my luck
I like the chair pod it’s a cracking idea but I can’t see it working in my van as I’ve got a rib bed that comes right up to the tailgate when the beds in it’s flat position meaning the tailgate wouldn’t close with the bed laid flat
I wonder if the guys at vanshades know about this not fitting with the rib bed?
Hey Dan,
Have bought the same solar panel as you fitted in this video.
Would you be able to share the measurements for where to drill the hole in the pop top as I also have the same top from skyline! Thanks.
Where did you get solar panel from
What solar panel did you use
What solar panel did you use? where did you buy it?
Does this mean you have a hybrid now 😁
Is it sunday?
Love the chair pod but jeez that’s pricey
Where did you get the solar panel young man?
Dan, love the idea of these under panel cables and not needing g to use a cable gland, did the panel come from the battery supplier? Cheers Bob
Hi Dan, I lke the van but are you sure you want to run the 5-cilinder? Theire are a nightmare (trust me, I been there done tat)
Yeah I know but the van was the right money. I have friends that have put £10k into these engines and still had issues. We will just engine swap it when it goes bang. Would be sick to get a 3.2 V6 in there…

Sound is a bit odd Dan??
Cheeky mid week
Way too expensive, £600😖 do a video on fabricating one dan,
CT1 often copied, never equalled 😂
