99% Finished!

All that's left to do is

Change over the drawer runners to the upgraded ball bearing ones X3

Seal around the edges between units and floor ( after a good clean of the floor!)

Measure up for a tailored carpet for winter use.

Make some cushions for the gap between rear seats an units. This gives another foot of leg room to the RIB seat length. Wife's just been volunteered 😇

Stick some anti slip matting in food cupboard.

Then get the DaffyDub wieghed to make sure all is well. I think it will be but just in case!

If not and I've got to lighten the load, well I've got the panel templates !!!!
And I know what I'm doing this time around!

Seats boxed in & Propex Outlet

Mostly finished the boxing in of the seats and run the Propex Heater outlet today.

The seatbelt panels I am going to remove and make two longer sides which will include the battery box and propex sides, then will only need the two short sides to finish the boxing in! It'll look neater !

Rear 12v Sockets

I have a couple of USB sockets built into the Solar Panel but now I've mostly built over it! I thought it would be easier to have a socket easily accessible at the back of the van.

Whilst searching good old eBay came across a double socket 2 X USB and a cigarette lighter socket.
I will wire it into the auxiliary 12v box behind the unit.

Benefits for me having it at the back I can use my 12v tyre inflator. I prefer to stick to my own inflator so that I always have the same pressure reading. The supplied power cord isn't long enough to reach back of the LWB !

Oh yes enter my Daffy Duck sticker!

The Vdub has been Christened the DaffyDub due to the front thermal screen having him on the front.
