    I'm sure I can't be the only one who knows the pain of flimsy bendy snappy glove box hinges. After mine eventually gave up, and I had recovered from the coma I was sent into looking for replacement parts on eBay, I decided to look for fixing options. Any kits shown in threads had long since...

    I’ve seen a lot of posts regarding how to repair a cigarette lighter in the dash, but I’d like to completely remove the side panel in the rear of the van and take out all of the wiring of the cigarette lighter there, but i don’t know what to be cautious around while disconnecting and what to do...

    Hey everyone, Does anyone have experience fitting the self-assembled campervan furniture produced by VanFurniture.co.uk? It looks like a good set-up but we're a little apprehensive about the fitting process - Do you really need to know what you're doing to fit it correctly? With our (fairly...

    I currently have a T5 high line with a sport line spec. The rear is fully carpeted with lights and the floor is vinyl. The only thing that lets it down is the underside of the dashboard and the door panels in the plastic grey it comes in. I’ve seen people spray them black but was wondering if...

    Opened fuse box earlier and heard something drop. Upon inspection I have the latch pin(pic 1), and the retainer(pic 2) is just square. Is the pin broke in someway or is the retainer missing some kind of insert with a circular hole? Only just got my first T5 and can't remember how it should look...

    Hello, I have just purchased a 1998 T4 van which has been converted. It has done 200,000 miles and drives really well. The only thing is after driving for a period of 70mph say on a motorway, when I slow back down to idle a burning smell of oil and fuel comes through the blowers. Occasionally...
