Fiat Ducato MWB L2H2 campervan conversion part 1

The first 3 weeks of my campervan conversion of a 2016 L2H2 Fiat Ducato. This is my second van conversion, the last one I did 7 years ago to a Citroen Relay LWB ambulance. This Ducato will either be for sale or rent on the Quirky Camper website! Its very much work in progress I started on 12th January and my aim is to have it finished by the end of spring.
The layout will be an L shaped kitchen at the front with a U shaped lounge in the back that will convert into a double bed. It will be completed with a rustic wood finish and will have a hidden toilet and shower and will be off grid capable with solar power.

What gadget did you use on the drill to cut the window holes?

Hi, just found your vid by accident, loved it , quick question which size fan max air did you go for? Thanks

[@jasonwoods50]

Thank you. Its 400x400 which is basically the cut out size which avoids the ribs and gives a flat surface. The 355 version is the same size fan, smaller cut-out. I think 355 is good for old ducatos where the rib spacing is different so best check your van first.

Are you keeping a record of material costs?
