VW Transporter T5 / T6 Carpet lining. How much to use and where SWB & LWB | Transporter HQ

[@gandhi1078]

That seemed a lot of wastage spraying the whole of the carpet & then cutting out for the sliding door 🤔 or can you reuse even if glue is on it?

[@UrbanExplorer614]

Why do you carpet the wall, then carpet the panel to clip onto the wall? Am I missing something as I see no benefit than just caperting over the panels after they've been installed?

[@THQAutomotive]

To access behind panels later if needed. It also stops the panels from rattling wood on metal.

[@simontravelstheworld]

Good video, well done!

[@liam-james]

2 insulation? I take it that’s rolls? How much m2 is on a roll please cheers

[@CMB_Vinyl]

Thanks for the video. I was going to carpet my rear barn doors, what causes moisture to get into the carpet if I do that?

@Enzo Cristiano i really appreciate your reply. I found the site on google and I'm waiting for the hacking stuff now. Seems to take a while so I will get back to you later with my results.

@Enzo Cristiano it worked and I finally got access to my account again. I am so happy! Thanks so much you really help me out!

@Maison Terrence you are welcome xD

Hi do you have any recommended company’s locally you’d trust to use your products and do the job properly for anyone who doesn’t have time ? As I presume you don’t offer a fitting service cheers

[@THQAutomotive]

@@quench1234 where are you based? Check out the Solow installer network on solowsuspension.com Those companies mostly fit all our products.

[@tylerviveiros9001]

On the top panels, do you carpet straight over the exposed insulation?

[@CMB_Vinyl]

Also just wondering why you put the original panels back in after carpeting the metal work? Looked like a nice finish without the panels back in

[@kevinmulligan9055]

He should have put the panels back on after insulating and then carpeted. Seemed a waste if effort and carpet his way with no diffrence in quality finish

[@Zwakkie05]

Wow this is excellent, my compliments ☺️👍🏻

[@OnlyDans848]

Whats the best way of cutting out the holes for the clips in the carpeted metal work?

[@THQAutomotive]

Trade secret.... soldering iron 🤫

[@Maxrom]

@@THQAutomotive This trade secret is gold. In my first van, I tried a scalpel, and it was a proper ball ache.

@@Maxrom Glad it was useful. Don't tell anyone else ;) haha

What clips to use for ceiling middle trim? Originals are too short and can’t find any information about that.

[@THQAutomotive]

We use the hidden panel clips we sell on our website. They are great and hold in tight :)

[@simonheckford2347]

@@THQAutomotive is it a faff to remove a panel if ever needed when hidden clips have been used?

[@THQAutomotive]

@@simonheckford2347 No not a all. Just pop a trim tool behind there and they pop out. They give a much nicer finish. It may be worth having a few spares, just increase some loose grip with re-installation.

Is it easy enough to take the rear seat floor brackets out?

What do you need sorry?

[@THQAutomotive]

@@marinejunkies9625 Ok, i see. To remove them totally you'd need to drop the fuel tank. You can just cover them with blanks if that helps?

Which colour did you do that van with? Can you get that lining from your website yet?

[@jamesstone1772]

Are the clips a one time use?

[@THQAutomotive]

If you are careful you can re-use them.

[@jamesstone1772]

@@THQAutomotive thanks as I am using putting the clips on the boards 1st then carpet lining over them so there hidden

[@SeanGreenels]

The boards your using, are they the original VW ones? All mine are missing.

[@THQAutomotive]

Yes they are. You can buy pre cut replacements though. (not from us)

[@nicof7134]

Nice video! What are you using to cover the holes on the chassis? Looks like some kind of tape...

[@THQAutomotive]

Yes its a foil tape. We have it on our website.

[@nicof7134]

Thanks so much!

[@D_L_J_83]

@@THQAutomotive why do you cover the holes? Is that so the glue doesnt go in them?

Hi guys, if I only want to carpet the walls do I have to remove my ceiling panel?

[@D_L_J_83]

Hi fellas just wondering if I should or have to remove my ceiling if I only want to carpet my walls and floor?

[@Maxrom]

@@D_L_J_83 Yes, you should. You can then carpet above where the ceiling panel sits, so you get a nice finish when the ceiling panels go back in.

What colour of carpet have you used in this van build?

[@THQAutomotive]

This is anthracite
