    Got the head unit in place last night

    I just need to wire the reversing camera up which is a job for the weekend I think so I can route the cable properly.



    Looks great! That gear knob could do with jazzing up a bit. Is it on the to do list?

      I was waiting for someone to mention that hahahha!! It is on the list of plans but I'm struggling to find a nice 5 speed one. Alot of people use mk5 golf ones but I don't like them... I just need to keep an eye out for one it is 100% on the list though

        marko301 you would be pleased to know my new gearknob has just turned up

        The caddy van is identical underneath to a VW Touran so I got the leather gearknob off the top of the range touran brand new a little job this weekend

        I have also now got all my insulation, ply and carpet for the back. As soon as we get a break in the weather I will be tackling that

          Never thought I'd be saying this to another bloke but once the work is done, show us a photo of your knob!

              100% cant wait to fit it.

              Thanks Marko appreciate it! There is yes but the forum I joined was not a friendly bunch so to speak and the forum is extremely quiet. As long as you don't mind me posting updates???
              I mind seeing updates......... Lol.



              Makes me want to get a van but Mrs won't let me. Seriously though keep the updates coming it's a stunning van. Struggle to get time on forums as much just now but this is by far the friendliest I have been on and very welcoming at meets as well.

                  So.. gearstick knob done over the weekend. Ignore the mess in the van... I did clean it afterwards haha!

                  Before....



                  After.. Its a leather one now which feels so much better! The cut outs around the edge are filled. I didnt realise in the packaging there was another little chrome surround to go on haha



                  This weekend now I will be insulating, ply lining and putting carpet all over the back Will get some before and after pics of that too

                      Looking good. It's surprising how all the little changes add up to a better look.

                        Thanks both

                        It is mad how different it feels too. Feels a bit more classy.. I think at some point I may change the steering wheel to leather golf one too

                          I think pink fluffy steering wheel cover is better .
