I want to panel out the inside of my bus but don't really want to spend £90 on a plywood kit can you get the measurements from anywhere or can you get any blue prints ..
Any help would be greatly appreciated

You could possibly make them out of cardboard then use that as a template.

Ye I considered that but might be tricky to get the clips in the right place

I made ours from card templates, not thick card but the craft type, you can also use thick wall lining paper, push a pen through were the holes are, I also used hardboard as opposed to thin ply to make the panels, ply always seems to brittle and the hardboard gives a little which doesnt crack or pop out of its holes, also give it a coat in watered PVA to give it damp protection particularly on the door panels. Others have different ways but this is what I like to use, hardboard is also cheaper wickes smooth one side and meshed on the other £6.90 for a big sheet and easier to cut, you can even cut it with a stanley.
