| With all the accessories and customisation for vw's what have you got in mind for your van? Big or small, deffinates or just one day i'll get!
I quite like the look of a canopy from funky leisure for those hot sunny days we're going to have next year. ________________________________________________________________________________ Matt. | |

| Just lowering to go. Might cover some if the metal work in the inside. Possibly a new gear stick before it snaps ________________________________________________________________________________ Ginger man without a ginger van | |

| Just tarted up my cupboards and made a speaker box for my radio, will post some photos for you to have a laugh....it was my wife who decided on this. Would really love to exchange the top for a VW Downunder one but no funds for that as its a big spend. Newton seats in the front!!! with the swivel base would be nice. The list could be endless. | |

| Fix the tap, fit a bed up top, fit a buddy seat, change the radiator cover, maybe find a different spare wheel carrier..... (these to-do lists always seem to get bigger!) oh then theres the steering column I want to look at and that stone chip on the front and a swivel seat would be nice....

| New Steering, nice set of Fuchs, paint match the spare wheel cover (van colour is not what the previous owner told me) thinking about a retro chequered cover for now…might swap the gearstick just in case! Oh and a new Bank manager! ________________________________________________________________________________ 2006 Air-Cooled Duby

You could have a bath! I need TIME! I've got a long strip of leds to fit under the rear gutter as a high level brake light, a pair of tweeters to fit on the dash and connect to the door speakers to hopefully improve sound at speed, an ammeter to connect to the leisure battery, connect radio to leisure battery, connect cig lighter sockets to leisure battery, remove roof rack for a good paint and varnish plus a few paint chips to deal with, sigh..... | |

| Are we all mad? spending loads of money on our vans.......... na, we love 'em too much!
White/red/white rear lenses to match the front, new curtains ( wife is all set to do them) including cab curtains, connect tv monitor in rear to my new dvd head unit that Tim V helped me instal ( he'll laugh at that as he did all the work, I watched and drunk tea tho'), that will do for now..... lots of other stuff I want, just have to introduce ideas slowly to 'management'.......

| My wife is just finishing off a nice crochet blanket made up of 'granny squares' for Eva. I would like some retro curtains to replace the plain beige ones fitted. Also want a decent spare wheel cover - not the plain black vinyl one on there now and oh yes, I want a proper VW nose badge, even if it is hidden behind the spare wheel. How about some non-leaking door seals too! | |
