VW T5 Camper Van - 7 Easy DIY Modifications

[@kinross24]

I like how Colin’s shelf has extra holes for his drinks bottles/cups and carpeted. Maybe a place to keep a duster for your dash? 🤪🤪

[@caspervanlife8466]

Yes me too. I’d planned to put some in (still May do), but as my cup holders are still accessible I decided to leave it for now…👍

Power to your elbow. Build your van to suit your needs. A bit of time and effort with minimal expense.. Keep up the good work!

[@caspervanlife8466]

Thank you for your kind words, much appreciated…👍

Great creative modifications. You could snip off the push in plug for the rubber grommets. As you said, the cable won't come.out so no need for them. Given me some good ideas for our van.

another great video mate. cant wait for the overhead storage video, if thats what it is.

[@caspervanlife8466]

Cheers Mark, just waiting for some supplies so I can finish it off…whatever it may be 😆

[@johngracie1960]

Great mods mucka! Only just found your channel Just subscribed 👍

[@caspervanlife8466]

Nice one, thanks for the feedback 👍

The white boarding you used for storage. Where did you get that from? I have the same type of bed in my t5 and the bit where you have the shutter is just wasted space for me as I currently just have a "worktop" kind of setup. I love this idea to store all my things

[@garethsmith5726]

I think the nets are great, I like the idea of the seat shelf and seen Colin’s version but not sure if it would work for me but may make one and see. Hope you get your subs you need. Keep them vids coming regular

[@caspervanlife8466]

Thanks Gareth, it’s a nice little project and I find it very useful 👍

[@robertsaville]

Well first off I love the duvet cover and pillow although doubt my Wife would approve :(. Cargo nets at the back are the next job though as create loads of space and no faff with stuff falling out. Couldn't see the link but off for a rummage around Google - good work Batman!

[@caspervanlife8466]

😆🦇cheers Robert…

[@raychambers3646]

Used the nets for mobile phone above the bed .Fitted a light on the tailgate which illuminates when gate is lifted.Also fitted a Venetian blind on tailgate window.When we bought the van there was a massive sub woofer in the back taking up lots of room chopped to bits and made an enclosure under the drivers seat .

[@caspervanlife8466]

You’ve been busy Ray…making your van suit your needs…👍…thanks for commenting…

[@davidcleckner3900]

Thanks for the video it's given me something to ponder over where if you can remember did you get the cargo net & fixings from

[@caspervanlife8466]

No worries👍 link for cargo net is in description…many thanks

[@allans911]

I really like the inbuilt matching fish tanks you exhibit at 1.45 of the video. Couldn’t, make out what sort of fish you,be got in there?

[@exploresandtosummit]

Every van needs a Rubiks Cube!!!! Come on everyone he needs 3 more subs 👍

[@caspervanlife8466]

😆well spotted… and yes I can do it 😁

[@davecooper3429]

great video as always , if you don't mind me asking where do you get the light weight board from and whats it called? keep up the good work

[@caspervanlife8466]

It’s called foam board… I did place a link in the description to show people an example 👍 I just happened to have some in my garage that I’ve had for years…

[@nikonneil]

What size cargo net did you get? that's a great Idea 👍

[@stephenoseman3579]

Can I ask who did you get your phone holder from thanks

[@caspervanlife8466]

Stephen, apologies for the delay. I purchased ths back in 2020 and Ive just had a look at isnt currently available. But this is a similar item amzn.to/382K9gF

[@anthonyabbott947]

how many times did you repeat yourself describing the firsty MOD

[@mickrobo6073]

Like a lot of mods BUT not keen on the front centre consul you made ,,it looks a mess Doesn’t blend in at all with the cabin..and I don’t like the new mod panelling Under front of the seat with the grey material ,,doesn’t look nice …white panelling made it really nice sorry just saying

[@AZZVANDIESEL]

Cut the grommets
