Thanks Steve

I've got a book 'How to convert your vw bus to a camper' it shows how to do it in there. It looks pretty simple, but it always does in the picures!

I'll scan the pages for you, but won't be able to upload them until monday.
If this helps send me PM with email address as I can't upload onto forum.

Doh! I have that book. Will look in it tonight.

Thanks for jogging my memory

SteveW,
how did this work out? I now have a panel van with full bulkhead which I intend to remove.

Are the instruction clear & useful? Any difficult points?

Any help welcome,
thanks
Garyd

you will need an angle grinder (pref with cutting disc) and a reciprocating saw! just go for it!

We did not go for the panel van in the end and got a Caravelle.

I did look in the book and the actual pictures are for a T4 but they do give you an idea of what needs to be done and how to go about it. Probably worth getting the book if you are doing a full conversion, I would not bother if you are only wanting to remove the bulkhead.
