Make sure the van is correctly insured etc, but IMO it's not worth the hassle of updating the CC with the DVLA, especially if you have little paperwork related to the engine or conversion. They'll likely want to see an invoice from a garage for the installation of the engine, and if you can't suppl...

Thanks much appreciated!  :D I knew it was circa 125bhp just from driving it but wasn't sure if what little information I have would be enough for them.   Unfortunately I don't have the reg of the donor.  All I have is a dirty invoice from Scoobybits which unfortunately misses this vital bit of info...

Hi! I've very recently bought a new (to me) T25 which has a Subaru engine.  I wasn't especially looking for one with a Subaru engine but it drove very well so certainly seemed like a bonus.  Unfortunately the insurance company (Just Kampers) want to know all about it (as do I to be honest) and have ...

Hi, I'm hoping to install a multivan jump seat into my camper in the coming weeks along with a 3-point seat belt. Has anyone managed to source a company that sells the Go Westy seat belt specifically for this seat (https://www.gowesty.com/product/made-in-usa/3443/3-point-retracting-seat-belt---jump...

If you're willing to swap out the whole seat then M1camperbeds make a full width RnR bed with integral three point seat belts.  You might be able to remove your cushions and fix them to the new bed frame.  It would avoid any welding of new anchor points although it wouldn't be the cheapest option.

Hi Basilakios. Can I just ask about your headrests on your r&r bed. We’ve just put an order in with M1campers and the headrests will be shaped from the plyboard attached to the bed and the the foam cut to match. They didn’t mention removable ones that they do - can you just explain what they di...

They would be travelling in opposite directions in relation to the headrest Headrests were introduced to mitigate whiplash when the force of a sudden stop combined with the seatbelt would send the person flying back into their seat. In a sudden stop situation the person in the rear facing seat woul...

Thanks for the suggestions. I wouldn't want a forward facing seat in the sliding door area as it would take up too much space.  What I like able the rear facing one is that it would double up for sitting around the table. Good to know I might be able to get a cheaper seatbelt somewhere else.  I'm on...

Hi, First time poster here.  I know this topic has been done before in a way but I'm coming at it from a slightly different tack if anyone is able to help. I've got a VW T25 camper with four seats which have three point seat belts and we need a fifth seat with the same.   When we bought it we swappe...
