Hidden Fridge, Worktop and Solar Installation in a Mazda Bongo rear conversion

[@brendanmcfall739]

Aah perfect Ian, great wee video, appreciate the time and meticulous dedication you've put into my wee van over last year or so. Ooh I had a weekend campout last weekend and it's just great 👍. I will leave you on peace for a while. Although a weekend campout might be fun some time. Bren 👍❤️😀

Thanks for letting me loose on your pride and joy :) it's been a couple of really interesting projects to work on. Definitely sort a campout soon! cheers 👍👍

love that top loader fridge… my fridge is so difficult to get at on the floor

[@VantasticIdeas]

I agree, it’s a great little fridge!

I'm curious as to the bed setup in a rear conversation. We have a Bongo with a side conversion at the moment, it's very cosy! Perhaps a rear conversation like this one would give more bed space for 2 humans and a whippet...

[@brendanmcfall739]

Hello fella love our side bed setup really suits us. It's only two of us we don't need seats too transport anyone. And rear kitchen. Works well for. Also I can have a little rest acts like a day bed in day time without organising whole bed out

Very tidy mate.. 👍 Did you fit the 2kw diesel heater ? I've been searching everywhere for a micro 1kw diesel heater but to no avail. Have you ever seen one smaller than 2kw ?

[@VantasticIdeas]

Thank you!! no still not found a genuine 2kw. I haven't heard of a 1kw diesel heater, but sounds like a good idea to me! Cheers 👍

Great video. Quick question about the solar. Did you have to drill holes in the roof for the cables and gubbins or did they squeeze through the rubber seals? Cheers

[@VantasticIdeas]

I literally just passed it under the rubber seal. If you watch my video about the solar panel respray I’m sure I show how the wires are routed into the van. Bear in mind my roof is the after market roof and not the factory AFT style. Cheers 👍

@VantasticIdeas thanks so much. Do you sell your small kitchen unit? Or a plan for it. I love the one with the pull out cooker drawer and tambour door.
