Is that a lwb vauxhall vivaro.

[@wullierobertson9937]

Great work, where did you get your mattress,

[@Baloovanz]

Thank you. I brought it from ikea buddy the normal double size.

[@Bartman1965]

I’ve realised that I’ve sprayed and stuck my silver reflective insulation/vapour barrier sheet on the inside panels of my Vivaro van before putting in my Thermo fleece insulation... Will this now cause a problem or should this be ok..? Thanks Baloo Bartman 🤙🏻

[@Baloovanz]

grapie1310 if your using it as a vapour barrier, the idea is, to prevent moisture entering the thermo fleece from breathing/cooking inside the van etc. This essentially means that, you will need another vapour barrier over the top of the fleece for it to serve any purpose. Thanks for watching matey

Out of interest what would you do if you wanted to sit in the van to dine. Is there provision for a table and or seating area?

[@Baloovanz]

Hi great question...In this particular build there was no table purely because i didnt feel the need for one as i used an awning for dining however a removable table could have been fitted between the front seats or infront of the box seat i guess.

Looking good 👍 we have a SWB trafic and we are going width ways with the bed, which mattress did you buy?

[@Baloovanz]

Outdoors with Sven & Anika thank you. I brought it from bedz online i had to trim a bit of the end but overall it fit well. It is also well comfy its a reflex foam with thin memory foam and wadding material encased in a non slip soft zippable cover.

BalooCamper well that settles it, I had seen that mattress before your vid, so decision made thank you 😊

[@benmoulden2455]

@@Baloovanz do you know exactly how long the bed ended up being after being cut?

[@Baloovanz]

@@benmoulden2455 the bed was a full length double mattress. I only cut out the corners to match the van wall but the length was a full length double bed which i think are 200cm. This is evident in my “soft furnishings” video. Thanks for watching buddy.

Also where you got the cover for the side step mate

[@Baloovanz]

Darren Kay hi mate. I actually brought it off a guy on facebook who was dismantling pretty new minibusses but they are available on ebay as far as i know?

[@missjazz1468]

Hello, do you do conversions for other people? We’d be interested to know 😊

[@Baloovanz]

I did but at the moment i am not taking on any new projects due to my fulltime job taking all my time. Thanks for watching :)

[@missjazz1468]

@@Baloovanz Thanks for the reply. If you ever decide otherwise then please let us know as we absolutely loved the LWB vivaro you did. We’re disabled so doing one ourselves is impossible:)

[@Baloovanz]

@@missjazz1468 ok i will let you know. I am actually in the process of building a workshop to facilitate more opportunities to build. Will certainly keep you in mind if that happens any time soon.

[@missjazz1468]

@@Baloovanz Brilliant! We absolutely loved the LWB Trafic that you did. We have no plans to purchase a van until next year so please keep us updated as we’d definitely like you to do our conversion :)

[@neilemery8133]

Hi mate is that the long wheel basic van?

[@Baloovanz]

This one was yes buddy

[@ourvanviv8858]

I've got a swb vivaro and really struggling with plans for the bed and seating area, any ideas, trying not to use a rock n roll bed

[@Baloovanz]

Darren Kay hi buddy, i previously did a swb is there a way i can send you some photos? It consisted of a 6ft sofa behind drivers seat down the side which pulled out into a double. This also had a wardrobe at the end and then kitchen opposite next to sliding door and slightly in front of it.
