  • It’s Episode 9 and it’s time to talk lights and wires for van electrics in our Citroen Relay van conversion. We’re showing our lighting layout and which lights we chose, how to connect your lights and wires, and how we ran the conduit through our van - the one and only, GLORIOUS Gloria.
    In our next episode, things are warming up… We’re showing you how we insulated our van.

    Great video guys, thank you for sharing.
    Re wires through conduit, I didn’t expect the Henry idea to work, but there you go.
    On another video, they put a blade down the conduit to split it. They opened the split and pushed the cable in.
    It can also be bought with the split in it.
    Just thought I would share.
    Looking forward to the coming videos, keep it up 👏👏👏👏👍

      Haha Good old Henry coming to the rescue! Splitting it is a good idea, that would definitely work too. Thanks for sharing! :)

    Thanks so much for the incredibly helpful blogs and videos! I was just wondering what make/model your wire strippers are? I'm trying to strip a 2.5mm wire in a black rubber cable and the strippers I have won't strip the outer cable (which is about 8mm). Thanks for any help!

      Defiantly too late. Sorry about that. 😬
      But these are the kind of things. These look like good value ones: amzn.to/3rkl8Dx
      If there is an outer cable use a knife to remove that first. Be careful not to cut into the inner cable cover. This sometimes takes multiple attempts, so make the cable too long so you have a couple of attempts before starting over.
      Hope that helps 😋
      Cheers, Tom
