Post by **MattyGreg05** » 21 May 2012, 21:41

I'm looking at making an interior for my panelvan project and am looking for inspiration on what to do etc.
So would love to see at least a couple of pics of each persons homebrew interiors. Preferably from tailgate end and sliding door view.
Cheers everyone in advance.

This is a homebrew that was already installed when we got her

I modified the lighting from old large fluorescent tubes to LED downlighters

Looking good John & Jenny

You seem to have the white vinyl thing going on, the same as ours

A while ago, when I was "introducing" our latest van, a Leisuredrive, we got to discussing how much different designs of interior can make a big difference. Some folks said the Leisuredrive had some flaws and it has (under bed cupboards that are not designed to be opened when the bed is down etc) Apparently, and I now agree, checking out, as best as possible, all the alternative interiors is the only way to decide what is best for you.

The reason for all my waffle above = our other camper has a home brew interior that we like (though a bit rough looking). The main difference is it has a "step" in the furniture whereby the cooker, sink, main cupboard and fridge are a bit wider than all the furniture behind them. Just like in the pics of nevill3's van above. This means the bed is wider = a great advantage. We took the wardrobe out of the Leisuredrive to give more room around the rear half of the bed as it felt a bit narrow and claustrophobic as it was. Don't miss the wardrobe (in our circumstances = plenty of storage in the Hi-Top and no kids !)

I also modified the under bed cupboard doors so we can open them when the bed is down (why on earth did'nt they design it like that in the first place !) We are pretty happy with it now
