You have no idea how helpful these videos are - thank you so much.

Interesting video that happened to be recommended by KZread. One thing I noticed about the bigger clips was I needed to run a 10mm drill bit through the holes in the metal body. You made this look so easy and I like the tip about spray paint to mark the holes for the clips.

Your channel is amazing ! Just bout a t5.1 shuttle going to fit a leisure battery and still deciding to take rear interior out and carpet a line it with a headliner etc your channel is going to be my bible 🙏

The level of detail in your videos is spot on!!! It makes it looks really easy! Best channel for Van conversions. :)

Hi, great video again. I'm learning so much to work on my T4. My roof panels are bowing down so want to re-attach them. How do you mark up the clip holes if the panels are held in with little screws at the moment?

top job as each time , a pleasure listening to you ! regards from CH

Really useful thanks! Got the Custom Shop Designs roof liner for my Vito and it's all you say it is, except not a single instruction on how to fit it & my Vito came with no liner, so nothing to go by.

Super useful video. Quick question, is there any way to remove the headliner strip clips without breaking them once you've fitted them?

Great vid cheers but any chance you could provide more detail on how to connect and wire up the lights?

Hey man. What would the other method of fitting headliners be? Thanks! Great videos!

Hi there have been getting some very good tips from your videos which I’m using on my own VW Caddy. One question tho the clips you are using on the factory fitted grey strips where do you get them from? Thanks again for the great videos

Hey guys, great video as always! Couple of questions... - why didn’t you put the middle trim clip up (between the two roof panels)? - I’ve got my stuff from the exact same places :)! Should I carpet the panels, put the lights in and then put them up? Or do you guys just carpet over the entire roof in situ? Cheers

Have you done any work on a Subaru Sambar before? We are really struggling with fitting a new headliner! Love the videos xx

I am from Switzerland and I wanted to by the trim clip used in This video. However, the Harrison shop does not deliver outside UK. Is there an alternatives to get these rivet ?

I mean amazing video as usual but holy shit. A Christmas tree bit I have never seen that before but what a sick tool.

How would you finish off the join between the front cab and the new rear carpeted headliner, if you dont have that nice trim threshold? For a different van to one you showed, which recently had the bulkhead removed. I have looked online for a company that makes custom ones but cant find any. Cheers guys 👍🏼

Hi there. My T4 has a sun roof in it and i want to change the roof lining as it's a total mess (as is the rest of it's interior) The company you recommended don't do cut out's for t4's with sunroofs so what would you recommend? Many thanks. Ivan.

Hi. I have an old T4 which i wanna do the roof lining in but have realized today that i have a sun roof. How do i get around this please.

What tools did you need to fish out the cables for the LED downlights once set in the ceiling lining ?

We are about to convert our Vauxhall Vivaro LWB 2014 > Do you know if the VW CNC Headliner kit will fit this vehicle? Templating the headliner is the thing that fills me with dread.

Great video, very useful. What thickness ply do you go for?

@CombeValleyCampers

4 жыл бұрын

Generally 3.6mm ply as its light enough to be held up by the clips and string enough to support the weight of carpet lining and lights etc

I’ve got the factory fitted roof liner in mint condition are they suit to use for a camper or is ply better? I’d be finish it in carpet M thanks

Where can I find the trim clips that you are using other than Harrison, since they can't deliver to france. Thanks

How thick is the roof ply please? Edit, Ah, 3.6mm as mentioned in the vid!

What is the link for the Harrison trim clips (the white ones for the strip)?

Do you spray-glue the reflectix to the roof?

Thanks for the kind words Gary. Ideally you want a 3.6mm board for headliner. Thick enough to have strength, but light enough to not a stress on the fastenings

Do you carpet over the clips in the roof so they are hidden or would you have to use a different type of clip if you want them hidden?

@CombeValleyCampers

Hi Mark, We carpet the panels seperately then refit them by pushing the clips through the layers, therefore having them showing.

I got fed up with the joining strip popping down so ended up screwing through them! I also found the clips plastic receptacles rattle like mad

Hi, can you tell me how long these longer clips are you are using? Thank you

What is the reason for not being able to carpet the original lining boards?

where can I buy these clips in Melbourne, Australia? Anyone know?

A friend said to me he put veltrim over the existing carpet on his van roof headboard?? whats your opinion please anyone.

There is no trouble having the downlighers touching the carpet then? Thought this might be a little dangerous as they can heat up quite a lot..?

Lol you cocked up the front headliner didn't you! 😂 spotted it when you were banging on about marking holes with spray paint. That's why front trim wasn't covering and why you mysteriously ended the vid saying it's not quite finished (gap between panels was too tight to fit centre trim!). Best just to own up imo 😂

Good way to lose an eye drilling out those clips. Please be safe so you can more great videos.

I've just found your vids in research to do my Vito. I've found head liner boards in 3.6 and 6mm. I see you used 3.6.......... I was going to order the 6mm as it's only £5.00 more. Would I be better with 3.6mm. Many thanks for all your vids

We prefer to offer and fit new headliners as the original may well be old and damaged. When an existing headliner is carpeted and fitted with lights they droop and sag due to the increased weight.

All that measuring between the lights and you didn't leave a gap between the pieces of ply where the roof bar is. Th distances will be wrong when you fit the panels. Also why is the front panel not long enough? It should tuck under that OEM Strip. Some good tips in the video.

Always cringe when people refer to themselves as professionals....
