    Hi Adz, a wee tip about changing the headlight bulbs on those style of van’s. Unscrew the two torx head bolts securing the headlight. Then slide the headlight to the side. For example drivers side to the right and passenger side to the left.
    Then you’ll have better access to the back of the headlight unit.👌🏻

    Aaw, the classic "suffering in a brand new van" experience. 😁It will make you appreciate every bit of added comfort SO much more. When I had just bought my car, I could NOT wait. I threw in a yoga mat and a sleeping bag and drove towards Italy. I have never been in such pain before as I was in the first night. In the morning, I drove straight to an IKEA in Austria and came out with a mattress. When I started with the build, I would cut up that very mattress and use it for my pull-out bed that I have to this day. ✌Can't wait to see what you're gonna do with that van of yours! 💪

    Hi Adz
    Get yourself a thermarest inflating mat. You can get R values up to 11 equal to three four season camping mats stacked. They have kept us warm in a tent at -7 to -15 Scotland in November as the only thing between us and the floor.

      I think some people have used them on memory foam but it’s apparently not the safest thing. But yeah in my caddy with the memory foam mattress, my blanket was amazing. I camped in -6 in the snow and the blanket made me too hot in the night. The air bed didn’t hold the heat in this vid. But tonight I have a duvet underneath me and the electric blanket on top and it’s well nice and warm now. The next issue will be keeping the heat out in the summer 😂

Was warm underneath the covers but it was like breathing in icicles the air was that cold! Hope your night is warmer tonight.

      A plan Thatcham branch are amazing for camper conversions. They accounted for everything that’s going into my build so it’s insured at the agreed value and the price was as low as my regular van insurance I had before! I’m actually doing a deal with them soon to let people know about how good they were so if you mention you heard about them through Adz Ventures you’ll get 10% discount too!

    Those silver things are not sound deadening - they're heat reflecting. Sound deadening occurs when porous material absorbs sound waves and prevents them from travelling further and spreading the sound. Foam is the best sound deadener as it has holes that causes sound waves to lose energy and disipate.

      It’s sound deadening. The silver heat reflecting insulation you’re referring to went on a couple weeks later

    I’m not too sure those vans have alarms on them. Sometimes I’ve seen companies come in and fit alarms and trackers to those vehicles.

      @@Adz thought it be the same as the Volkswagens way. If you press the lock button twice, it turns off the alarm must be different I’ll have a look online and see if there’s a way you can get around it Shame you can’t take a spare off the front wiring switch to unlock and lock the vehicle and have it in the back on the wall. Then you can also lock and unlock the van from in the back
