I Turned My Kia Soul Into a Mini Camper Van 

Fair play to you for doing it all yourself, I have just bought my wife a 2018 Kia Soul ev .our first electric car we love it. 👍🇬🇧

It is very refreshing to see a young woman with an idea and no plans to follow use her brain and figure it out all on her own. You go girl! :)

Omg this is genius ! I have a kia soul and was considering trading for a camper van but wow !!!!! I may do this !

This was great. I want to do this to my Soul.

Good video i'm saying it three years later. I hope all is well

Wow! Awesome build! Thank you for the video!

I’d love to see an update or if you still have it !

i like the design. why didn't you remove the front passenger seat to make it easier to work with

Thank you so so SO much for this!! I bought my Kia Soul a few weeks ago specifically because I liked the idea of camping in it. I was looking around for a little while to possibly pull a trailer, but when the cost was too high or the tear it had on my car looked like it would be too dangerous, I went looking again. After watching this, I took out my storage in the trunk to see how it played out, and holy CRAP theres so much sitting space above my head! I have neck issues pretty bad so anywhere I couldnt sit up straight would be a problem. It didnt even occur to me to take out the secret storage, since it seemed like such a good idea! Seeing your set up though, I'm convinced thats the way to go. Make storage elsewhere! Aaaahhhh I love your video so much, thank you for the inspiration!

This looks like 24th st... Is this Arizona?

The struggle is real 🥴. Thanks for posting a true to life experience of building something which takes a little bit longer and is a little bit harder than what is shown on most other video's. Xx

Nice! I'm going to do this with my suv to travel the east coast thus fall

masks and distancing is a waste of time

Great video

I have the same setup but kept the back seats- didn’t seem necessary to extract them.

What happened to the mini-camper? Does the story continue? = )

nice video, I'm looking to build a platform in my soul for camping and organization. So overwhelming though lol.

But the Kia going down the road with the back opened looked grey, not yellow, LOL stay safe!

Thanks for the video, how long is your bed? I’m 6’2” , just want to know ,if i buy a soul I will have enough space to sleep well

This is an interesting bed setup. I hope you found a more comfortable sleeping pad so you can get better sleep and health! Nice work!

Good job..I did a very similar build in my 19 soul...I did not have the raised bed but that'll probably change..as far as something softer to sleep on,I have a self inflating sleep pad that works well for me..thanks for the video

I got a 2013 soul maybe we can park next to each other and camp lol . 😂😂😂😂

Good job... And thanks for the laugh.🤣🤣🤣

Ya need some English lessons Doll...no such word as "afore' in the first few minutes....other than that a cute presentation...quiry what did you do with front right seat? Remove it? fold it down? Replace it? The and Bravo

😂. I laugh so hard because I have done something similar . I’m glad I am not the only one

I was thinking of same kinna idea..did it in a smart car..but am up grading to a soul..you kinna skipped over the front passenger seat??? Does it fold down? Or..??? Lookin forward to yurr reply.. Rhonda

You are super cute you earned a sub

I'm thinking about doing the same thing but at another level. I'll be getting rid of the front passenger seat and all of the back looked you did. 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

Even professionals have lost fingers. We are all human that makes mistakes no matter how skilled we are.

If I ever see a spider that big I’m moving to the arctic circle.

I didn't learn much here but I'm stoked on your enthusiasm 😂

Perfect, all of it. And I'm off with my two puppies.

If I may suggest, you should cut the support beam at the very rear of the car. It ever so slightly covers the spare tire area. Trust me, when you have to take that spare out, having an opening where that beam used to be will save you SO MUCH grief. Use about 8" of the beam on each side. The plywood should be able to support that open section just fine.

You are amazing, I admire your determination, your personality enlightens me & you make me laugh. I have a 2016 Kia Soul & will do likewise, hopefully I would'nt have to wait too long. Be safe 👍.

I'm getting ready to do the same to my 2018 kia Soul. What year is your kia and how many inches in length did you get?

too much talking, more action needed for watching

Good luck on your adventures!

Good job well done

Way to go! Do you still have the design plan? I'm trying to do the same thing to my KIA

You are so cute and funny 🤗❤️

I have a kia in ct

I thoroughly enjoyed this. You rock!!!

You go girl!

Do you have the measurements of the wood for the floor?

Thank you for not being an airhead. I enjoyed your commentary. Just the right touch of personality and lots of intelligence. Didn’t annoy me in other words. Great music! Thanks!

Fantastic!!!!! Looks amazing 👏

The whole thing is planned hun. Live your life while you can. Stop parroting the narrative.

Love your Yellow paint I have a Cappuccino color with decal dash strips down both sides. I got an XXL black dog bed with 2 small dog bed cushions that fit in the center. Put fuzzy blanket over it and it is very comfortable. I have full size faux fur blanket and woven rugs under the dog bed. I’m 5’4” and it works great. A lot of times under my sleeping bag I take my pants and Undies off I sleep much better. Only from dusk to about 10 or 11 am and park in a way no one parks right next to me hasn’t been a problem. I will be tinting all of my car windows so you cannot see in soon.

This is sick! I'd love to get a kia soul. Is it not possible to remove the front seat?
