Hey mezz, nice, but i am assuming that what you have done with the mural and wing lights is photoshopped, is that correct. Are you planning on doing this to your van ? if so will look great.

ok, the only reason i thought photoshop, mezz had a rear window, unless it is the see through vinyl graffic. I'm sure we will get the full story from mezzmo. Love the imagination though.

Its a flat piece of perspex fitted to the outside of the door covering the original window opening. That allowed us to put the graphic (sticker) right over the whole door. Its not see through as the back is now fully enclosed for storage (pics later) The side door has been replaced with one that has a large window opening, with that one we have used the see through graphics as well as the driver and passenger windows.

Its come up a treat and we will be completely finished by Friday ready for Tuesdays start. Been a hell of a ride so far......learnt a lot, swore a lot more but have had a shit load of fun.

I'll post some good quality pics on the weekend of the finished beast.

Hi Wazza, yep thats the set up we are using, 15 x 7 with a light truck tyre.

Hi Beddymad, i have removed the power windows for the time being and gone back to manual, just if the electrics broke down on the bash for whatever reason we would be up s**t creek. As far as fitting, they were easy as, for whatever reason tho, my drivers side window just wouldnt go up. Went down ok! just didnt have time to dick around with it - i'll di it when i get back.

hey beddymad, what was the brand of kit you bought for your windows ? I am looking at a kit that rocket sell, but am interested in anyone that have power windows and how smoothe they are in a beddy.

Hey mezz, i'm guessing any have baked sparky could do the windows.
