Fiat Ducato XLWB bespoke camper conversion Series 12 Episode 1

Welcome to another bespoke campervan build series. In this series I am converting an XLWB Fiat Ducato with a layout different from what I've built in the past. This conversion comes with lots of extras so should make for a fun build.

    I've just binged you most of your videos, brilliant work! It's inspired me to go and buy a H2L3 Ducato and start my own project, if it turns out half as good as yours I'll be please :) Also, what thickness ply do you use on the floor and do you insulate underneath this? Thanks again, Matt

    Hi Dan first time on your channel 👍🏻 I am in the thought process of converting a L3 or 4 H2 Citroen relay so have been watching lots and lots of videos 👀. I noticed you don’t put on the foil vapour barrier everyone seems to bang on about, you may have addressed this in a previous video if so please direct me to it, but just wondering why no vapour barrier, as you have been doing vans for years I understand, then I would be interested to know why you chose this route as I am sure it is based on years of experience. I will work my way through your vids 👍🏻 Thanks in advance Alex👍🏻 Ps any other viewers I will welcome their comments on this matter

    Hi thanks for watching👍 I don't use vapour barriers as many other converters don't use them either. A camper needs to breath and this vapour barrier stops this from happening. I always provide ample ventilation in the campers I build and never had a problem. Hope this helps👍

    Hi Dan, i'm interested in how you have fixed the ply batons on the roof in this build, are you able to provide a little more detail? I'm in the beginning stages of my ow Ducato conversion. You'll probably get many more questions from me, sorry 😀

    Which part do you mean? The roof continues through from the back which is attached to metal. The front piece is slid down at the front and connected to the roof part and the side pieces are cut to size and screwed to the plastic. Hope this makes sence. Many thanks for watching
