Your elder son had me and the wife in stitches. Playing up to the camera like he had a gun......oh to be young again ! Like your design, looks like we will do the same in our Fiat Doblo (lwb). I like the fact you didn't upload it at 16x speed, so you could actually see what you did, cheers, Rob.

Your son may be great full to have a dad like you are, I don't know who my father is, it's a big secret from my mother 😂😂😂😂I have the same car but without the side doors, and you are give me some inspiration thanks man 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼💪🏼💪🏼💪🏼💪🏼💪🏼💪🏼

[@DjSilish]

Thank you for your kind words and thanks for watching glad you enjoyed.

[@mikeclare5907]

Thanks for the video, i think i have decided to go with your design and do something similar to my nv200. In a small van as you know space is at an extra premium. Wonder if you woulld consider this, i am going to. The backrest/legs for the bed are hollow, i am going to tinker with using that space and fixing ply in place with magnets or simple catches to gain access to the hollow area. Just a thought.

I love this bed! Just got the exact same berlingo and planning to convert it. Would you mind sharing the dimensions and sketches for the bed? Ta

[@DjSilish]

I no longer have any sketches or dimensions for the bed, as far as I can remember, the bed was a small double in width and length with the extensions at the end extented. 120cm Wide x 190cm Lenght. Hope that helps. Thanks for watching :)

[@emmanuellecapdevielle7479]

Hi Sid! Great job, lots of inspiration for my 2015 Berlingo. Could you please be so kind to give the width of the bed "unfolded" in day mode? I may have missed this one (sorry - French 🙂). Thanks a lot and very happy new year BTW

[@DjSilish]

Hi Emmanuelle, the width of the bed was 1200mm (standard small double size), thank you for watching :)

[@lisaheffernan329]

This is class well done 😊👌

[@notafan1275]

Thanks for this video! It's good to see yet another version of a space-saving bed. I really like how your bed folds into a bench - nice and easy. But what do you do with the mattress when the bed is a bench?

[@DjSilish]

I was using a blow up small double on it, but you could use cushion and use that as the seat cushion during the bench mode. Thanks for watching :)

[@F0R3V3RFit]

As I couldn't get a good look at the bench frame part closest to the wheel arch, did you make the frame flush up to the wheel arch or around it? Love this idea, the most accommodating bed idea I've seen soo far for a combo van build. 👍

[@DjSilish]

Thank you, the frame butted up to the wheel arch and the top of the bed / seat sat just ontop of the wheel arch. Where the drawer slides in and out that is where the frame ends, the rest is supported ontop of the wheel arch which offers adequate support for such a small portion of the bed. Hope that helps, thanks for watching :)

[@user-se3gi3xf6g]

How tall did you make the boot jump please? I am currently converting my berlingo and think I've made mine to tall🤦🏻‍♂️ thanks

[@SamDaMan101]

Hi pal what wood/size did you use for the frame please? Currently looking at ideas for my belingo

[@DjSilish]

Hi Sam, honestly I’m failing to remember what it was now. I think it was 3”x2” for the frame and 18mm ply then. I seen a bed recently with pull out sliders it was a brilliant idea the channel is Josh Oakes check that out I can’t remember the video but it was fairly recent.

[@flashdict]

Somewhere between #6 and #7 you installed the floor, or did I miss it? Maybe wasn't so complex but interested in how you insulated underneath. Great series!

[@DjSilish]

Hi William, a lot of campers insulate the floors but very little heat is lost from the floor. I never really insulated the floor but I used some carpet of cut to slightly insulate and provide a little sound deadening. Just cut it to shape and layer the plywood on top and screwed the plywood in a few select areas. Make sure you check for anything you could damage such as brake lines etc when screwing the plywood down. Thanks for watching 😀

[@flashdict]

@@DjSilish Thanks for the reply. Not sure I'll ever get the carpet to go in one piece, but... small steps. :)

[@nicobeukes2263]

Step-by-step instructions for a Citroen Berlingo III single bed. The instructions describe all dimensions, materials and woods that can be cut and obtained from the hardware store. Then the timbers and angles are put together like a kit.

[@Clan501-Scotland]

Doesn't the armrest lack support if up to two people could be sitting there leaning against?

[@ruiduque9903]

hello great video I will do it on my renault kangoo for this summer, could you just tell me the thickness of the bed legs? thanks

[@DjSilish]

I can’t fully remember what dimension the bed were I think the legs / frame was 4” x 2” or 100mm x 50mm, the ply wood was 3/4” or 18mm hope that helps 😊.

The dokuments are bindig?

[@imeldakennington1047]

I hope you have paid the little labourers the going union rate. Great job

[@DjSilish]

lol they surely did thanks for watching Imelda.

[@robertross1903]

Hi, where did you get your collapsible front seats from?

[@DjSilish]

Hi Robert, the van came with the collapsible front passengers seat from new. Im not sure if it was an extra or standard from factory though. Thanks for watching.

[@johnrose1985.]

Is the bed attached to the flooring?

[@DjSilish]

attached to the side ribbing and the front bulkhead lip. Hope that helps.

[@johnrose1985.]

Ok thanks chap. Also where did u get the carpet from?

[@DjSilish]

@@johnrose1985. No worries, got the 4 way stretch carpet from www.highpeakconversions.co.uk/shop/lining-carpets/premium-range-carpets/premium-flexi-trim-4-way-stretch-commercial-van-lining-carpet/

[@DjSilish]

@@johnrose1985. Give yer man that runs it an email he was super friendly and helpful :)

[@johnrose1985.]

Would u say it was easy to install yourself? Getting over the wheel arches obviously it being rounded etc

[@STUDIO7Collectibles]

How tall are you btw?

[@DjSilish]

I am 5' 9" (175cm) :)

Qáa

[@rajputkajal5014]

hii.hindie ma kaho plz

[@oohshit100]

like it but if somebody hits you in the rear full speed .....think bout yr back the bed rams yr spine 🙄

[@ElliotMelloy]

I had the same thought. I'd cut a long diagonal slit in the four longest pieces and join them back together so they were strong vertically but kind of weak horizontally. If they rest on a vertical support posts then they would take the weight of people but in a crash they should deform and allow the rear half of the bed to collapse into the front. Similar thing with the top sheets, a diagonal cut so the back half can slide up and over. The whole thing would basically need a slight redesign.

[@Reuldonniedah]

Nice one, i was looking for something like this for my boat. it's about the same size but i'm stuck with 2 build in boxes and can't go with a slider bed, this is a good alternative. only thing i need to change is the bed self still needs to open for excess to the bottom of the boat ( where your kitchen is) so i was thinking to do the same thing but instead of mount it permanent i'll go with a 2nd piano hinge. thx for the vid

[@DjSilish]

Thanks for watching Roald 😀

[@eddielloyd4070]

good job ,,except for one thing you have no access to the spare wheel release bolt

[@edenbreckhouse]

I have yet to see anyone squeeze a small double (120cm wide) and a kitchen into a vehicle this size.

[@DjSilish]

I was determined to get it to fit, I had not seen it done either and had to see if it would work. Thanks For watching :)

Is that cutie I see 👀 running around a King Charles Spanial?

[@lisaheffernan329]

Yes this is our beautiful king charles ROCKY 😀

[@rodrigomezamartinez2363]

How do you remove the spare tire?

[@DjSilish]

Hi Rodrigo, the spare tyre on the berlingo is underneath the van, it’s on the outside. You will need a spanner and socket set as there is a bolt and frame holding it up to the underside of the van and normally they are rusted on. Hope that helps.

[@gashead2]

Great video well done
