well not updated this in a while. main things to go in just before FCS were the seats and finally fitted my spacers which make a massive difference. was fairly happy with the way the car looked at FCS:
but as with everything i wasnt satisfied so decided to remove the rear seats, so from this:
to this, with a convenient piece of carpet dropped in so the dog didn't hurt himself on any of the sharp edges. so decided to clad it to match the konig's
made a rough template of the boot and decided to get cracking. cut it out with the jigsaw leaving me this. then sanded and planed the edges to get them a bit smoother.
then used some rather funky smelling spray glue to attach some 1'' thick foam.
which left me with this little mess.
then cut the excess away with a carving knife and threw some synthetic leather over the top. i'm no upholsterer so you will have to forgive my rather poor attempt :dapprove:
the boot section is unable to move due to its shape, whereas i thought the front piece under hard braking may slide forward. so used some L brackets tucked into the original holes, and screwed to the underside. not sure how long this solution will last, as i personally think its a bit pikey but nevermind lol
all in all i'm rather pleased tbh. next week when i get back from my holidays got to go to birchdown auto services to collect and fit the bargain k-tec show cage i got off the ebay which will hopefully tie it all together a bit more and make it look less like a van.
