Welcome to Built not Bought Campers. On my channel you will see hints and tips, hacks and ideas on ways to build your own camper vans.
My Vanlife channel will provide information on how to install roof vets, install windows and many other items in your van.
We have a fully working workshop and invite people to come and work on their vans and have work carried out.

Nice work
Of the white wires by the fuse box, how did you work out which wire was the reverse wire? I have several white wires. A really fat one and a few other smaller ones. Many thanks.
Looks great
So please explain : are the the two BLUE wires ON the CAM buss ? And the SEAT BELT sensor is just wired across ( in series ? ) on the CAM BUSS The CPU is looking for 3.3 k ohms ? To know that either the seat is being sat on or not .? And your just simulating the sensor being sat on ,, is that correct ?
Amazing tutorial mate, this have helped me out big time! Keep up the good work 💪
Exactly how im doing mine...saves taking out those unwin tracks out of my ambo...great job😊
Nice one 👍
Hi thanks for the video really has helped Is it the same resistor for both seat tensioners/ wiring As was told it’s a different ohm for twin seats Any advice would be most helpful thanks 😊
Hi can I talk to you if you are taking on vans to fit one of these camera I’ve already brought one but want someone to fit
Great ! And the most important bit , how to wire it into the switch, You decided to Run It at 300 mph
Pity you didn't actually show how you fitted the bolts down though the roof. Washers, sealing ect
Thanks
Use a skateboard wheel with the bearings still in it, just put a pencil through 👌
We're on a wholenutha level bro. 💯
Cabt find any later vids on this
A small sharp floor scraper would of removed that old sealant faster.
2:12 Top tip 1: I didn't need to take off the top light cluster I was able to feed some TV coax cable, which is stiff allowing yo to push it, through that rubber ducting into the van. Top tip 2: I sprayed the cable with some cooking oil and it slid in nicely and never played hard to get. :)
Hi big fella could I of bollted the 5mm bar to the bace instead of wellding it? I'v been watching a lot of your vids are thy are brill no messing about .
Too long foing a job wr dont have yo see from stat to finish
Taking to long on jobs
Smashing bloke, just brought one of these and the instructions are useless and mine are in B&W you’ve got my sub
Ok but why turns on only when you put the gear on reverse? Wouldn't it be better to be always on?
How do I contact you?
Presumably, if you're just putting the original seat back in, you don't need the resister trick. Been looking for how to remove the seats out so I can clean my Van properly (just bought an ex trade van, so its got years of dirt in it) and maybe even recondition the seats themselves. This vid is the best explanation I've found!
Good video but don’t need that horrible music
kzread.info/dash/bejne/fZ6VpsSiYdqYe9I.html I honestly hought you were joking about the nails. :O Are you serious? Surely you run the risk of nailing into cabling, brake or fuel pipes that are unseen underneath, any mild steel panel pin nail will be rusted out within a few years. kzread.info/dash/bejne/fYFmrZmshpCxZ5c.html Those underlay board surely need only a small dab of glue here and there to stop them from moving over time. I would envisage that too tidy a job on underlay may be a problem to allow for contraction and expansion of the floor?
Those alloys look suspect under any VOSA inspection :O kzread.info/dash/bejne/fqGa1tGfhs2sk7Q.html
I think i'm clocking out of work and going home and doing this bro😂
Brilliant bro.. I've been looking for something like this to make a platform for my s. U. V so I can sleep on it. You just saved the day if I was there I'd buy you a beer right now
Almost certainly motherboard so would need both bought together so they match (around the £30 mark). If the sequence isn't right it simply won't fire up and all of that is handled by the main board. I've yet to investigate but I suspect its down to the relay or associated components on that board that switches the glow plug on. E-8 is simply no burn. Its not always fuel (although the first place to start) - it simply means the unit hasn't fired up. I'm fairly sure the relay on the motherboard handles the ten or so amps for the glow plug and I suspect that if the secondary side fails, as far as the motherboard and display know, the glow plug is actually powered up, but in reality no power is going to it, even though one side of the relay has energised and the display says all is well. The only way to know for sure is to put some test probes in the glow plug socket on the motherboard with everything connected and see if there is power there (and how much) when display shows glow plug is on. Easy enough to verify if glow plug actually works by hooking it up to a 6v battery (briefly) with a couple of test wires shoved in its socket.
Is it 12v tv?
Way to go, add 100 to 200 Kg of needless weight to you van permanently. Then sell it a couple of years later due to prohibitive MPG costs...
How do you clean the sewer pipes of the shower as the get pretty nasty in couple weeks?
Hi, do you fancy a weekend away in Rye East Sussex on me?. I have this same make model of bus and would love your advice and help. Chris
Yeah sure I’m local to you and went to school over there myself a good old Thomas Peacock Boy. Email me in [email protected]
Thanks ....my bullbars / sidebars going on next week 👍 subscribed
Did you disconnect the battery for all of this installing the wiring etc
we are doing a campervan conversion on a 21 plate Citroen Relay, the seats are out and gone onto better things, and are replaced with Galaxy captains swivel seats. would the resister required be a 3,3ohm one as well, or is each van going to be different, and where would I locate that info? Thanks for your time
Absolutely brilliant, great editing and information. I’m building my camper currently over on my channel and taking great inspiration from this. New subscriber right here 🙏🏼 thank you 👍🏻 JP Living the dream
Hi Wayne,you are so rite about insulation, I was lucky a company I used to collect from and too, specialises in insulation for buildings and tower blocks, so I managed to blag the insulation and reflectives for free too, a little factory in South Wales called Siderise.
This has really helped me out, I thought I’d have to take it to a garage to get it sorted at great expense. £5.99 later and it’s all sorted, cheers! Top man
Great van, I get fed up with seeing guys spend several thousand on just the build haha, but nothing was said about insulation, that can be expensive, at least £200 to £300, you can't skip on insulation though.
Nice guy, great build on a budget 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻 cool van ❤️🙏🏻
Yes he is a nice guy and the build is amazing
Fabulous. Just goes to show, anything is possible.
That’s what I always say
hi great video do you not need to vent that battery to the outside?
why did you not just use a turret ? it makes for a much tidier job
Is this actually legal? I thought deleting safety stuff already fitted was a big no no.. dangerous and possible insurance problems paying out in the event of a crash with passengers being injured?
Fantastic. Thanks for sharing, mate! :) 806 seats - noted! Question. If I change seats from 1+2 to 1+1 setup, do I have to re-do V5C to update total seats number, would be that MOT fail if not done?
Thank you for such a practical tip. If you ran the “profiler” on narrow stock much as you did, but added a speed square, allowing the jig to move freely against the square, that might offer improved precision.
Very good explanation! I have a Renault Trafic with a seatbelt light on, now I know where to look for a problem because I understand a bit more! (It's a camper conversion)
