A set of fibreglass trim panels for a RHD van have come into my possession.

They go all around the roof frame (the structural bits with the vents and interior lights in) and above the sun visors, tailgate aperture and down the full B pillar, and partway down the D pillar.
I'd guess they are from a UK based camper as there are cover panels to hide crossbars around a roof aperture.
The tailgate panel has holes for speakers and the windscreen one has mentioned recesses for the visors.
All in all it is nearly made, if old and tired. I plan to use it to dress up our Syncro panel van.
Can anyone shed light on its origins?

I initially thought it was an air-con set-up, but then changed my mind. Not seen anything like that before.

Turns out it's from a Devon Microbus.
Pretty cool set of parts when I put it all in its correct layout. I'll get more pics as I trial fit it in the Syncro.
