Ep5 SPRINTER VAN BUILD TWEED CEILING FABRIC INSULATION 

Amazing job, loving the attention to detail. The finish is spot on. Can’t wait to see more of what you’ve got planned for this build 👍🏻

This channel is perfect for me just found it by the sprinter rear seats install, looks like I’ll be watching plenty more of these, thanks!

It's the first time I have seen someone do as I did when I built mine 3 years ago. Wool insulation, plus material covered pin board with wadding attached. The idea being that my insulation is totally breathable and dried with the diesel heater and vents. Great job..

Looking good, nice job what a well thought out process.

Great job and looks lovely. bang on with the insulation as well, the closed cell foam will stop alot of the condensation from forming on the ceiling anyway so you are defo on the right track without messing with vapour barriers, to my mind anyhow. Looking forward to see how the build develops.

You're doing a brilliant job 👍🏻

Great video! Top work🤙🏼

Brilliant as always

Nice work!

you can also rivnut into ply, ive tried it and it works. So you can use the same finished bolts

Absolutely stunning mate 👍😊

I did the same Jackery hack! It's lovely.

Ceiling and trims look great you weekend warrior 😜

Great job mate very well explained to the point some wannabe pro van builders will be nicking your techniques.

It’s a great series for ppl wanting to do a high end job.

Looking good Mate, we’ll done ✅

Very clean job, the details in a short video are great. I'd not considered how to mount cabinets after the celling was up so thank you. Will you be using the same Rivnut and plastic bolts on side panels?

Your videos are all helpful and aside from the GZ Yeti I have also ordered high lockers from Evo Motion for my Sprinter, after watching your videos. The lockers are still on order and I am fitting fixing points into my van. I cannot find any videos on the locker fixing points other than yours. Granted the drawings from Evo show the cross bar where the locker is attached to the roof, but I was wondering about any fixing points on the wall. Do the lockers just hang from the fixing points in the roof are do you also fix them to the wall? Thanks again for all the videos and please upload more content.

Looks Great and loving the fabric . Can I ask did you wrap the door pillars in the same kind and what material supplier has it as not liking my automotive carpet sample I have . Thanks

Love the look of the tweed. I’m planning a build and feel like I’m stealing all your ideas haha

Really starting to come together now 👍👍

Totally agree 👍 i have 2 extractor fans and a roof vent, most people oversize a diesel heater anyway, a 5KW is overkill in a van so you have the extra heat capacity to "waste" some evacuating the moisture IMHO

I Know this is a while back but just starting my van build and your videos are so much help to me. Can i ask what you did under the factory flooring I'm just gonna be a weekend warrior on the MTB and want to re use existing floor as a base but interested what you put underneath

Good job

ive done ceilings before and those clips you are talking about are a nightmare. Your idea of rivnuts and nylon bolts really is a good idea. That is well smart. I liked your plywood ceiling frame , pocket holed into the beams. I will do what you are doing. Leave the strips as less is sometimes best. Your idea of aluminium strips might be overboard. How did you marry up the bolts into the rivnuts?

I used the original headliner, looks great, covers down the sides a little, is sound deadening and insulated. It’ only takes minutes to install

Do you have any video of Bed frame fitting ? ( What was used material wise ) Great work 👏 Keeping posting 📫

Looks awesome, thinking of replacing my ceiling. How did you fix the ends by the head liner and the doors? Also did you use the closed cell foam on the pillars before the tweed? Cheers

I run the hole saw backwards at speed and it doesn’t grab.

I like this. I’ve always heard that you put the insulation directly on the van metal and foil backed plastic on the inside because of heat transfer. I’m sure it doesn’t really matter as people obsess over minutiae on RU-vid 😩🖤

Quality job there looks fantastic where did you get your tweed fabric from may I ask ?

having difficulty contacting you privately on here. I was wanting to know which glass to order for the side windows to avoid the issues you had with the dot matrix and seeing the van metal through the glass.I was wanting to go for a sliding opener on the door side and a non slider on the fixed non door side.

The new van is looking amazing! Will be grabbing a few of your ideas for sure. I’m looking to use Evo Designs in my van which roof panel kit did you get as none advise they are for the new model sprinter. Thanks

Do you know whether you can get material like that for covering the walls or could you use that for covering walls?

Hi buddy, how much of the material did you use to do the roof/walls? Cheers

Hi Aiden, Van build looks great...which tweed fabric are you using and who supplies it .. thanks in advance... Warren

Looking good 👍 are you going to give up plumbing at van build full time 👍👍

Another class video. Don't suppose you could put links to all the products your using in your build, sorry if that's a big ask I'm a first time builder. Keep sharing👍👍👍

what insulation did you do on the flares? thanks

Loving the build! Where can I get the tweed fabric?

Apologies, general question for you. What sat nav do you have for your tv?

How many packs of the sound deadening and the liner did you use.

where can I get the plastic bolts Aidan please? no link there

what length nylon m6 bolt did you get? im going to copy lol

Could you do me a favour and check your link for the fabric? I just received my order and it looks nothing like yours
