VW California Van Mode or Maximising Storage Space in a VW California
Vložit

- Today we're putting the VW California into what I like to call Van Mode. That is, maximising the storage space by pushing the rear seats all the way forward, removing the rear shelf and having as much storage space as possible.
You can even put the bed down flat if you need more length in the rear compartment, and if you leave the headrests in the up position, you can slide things underneath the bed too.
Let me know what you think. Do you have your own tips for maximising the storage space in a VW California? Let me know in the comments.
Thanks for watching! California Chris.

Thank you for the instruction on how to remove the rear bed/shelf. Very easy and a one man job using your video.
Glad it helped
Brilliant informative again thanks chris
My pleasure!
Very useful video. I was wondering about this.
Always exzellent , thanks!👍👏🍀
Thanks for your support!
great video as always 👍 although I have a quick question: with the seats up (ready to transport passengers on the back seats) and pushed forward, how deep (in inches or cm) is the trunk?
thank you and keep up with great content
Would be interested in how to get the bench seat as far back as possible so that it maximises the living space when not needing it as a bed as sleeping up top
By loosening the front stop screw ( there is only one stop screw) on the rail and moving it as far forward as possible, that gives you more place. By doing this you can acces the tool box on the back of the back seat through the side door.
And how much load lenght do you get then. I'm looking for a van that is able to carry a mobility scooter or to use as camper. If this gives the requierd lenght than it is perfect. Otherwise I would have to convert a normal panel van into a camper. 🤔🤔
I know this video is about storage, but as a side note I can’t believe how easily that bench seat slid forward!! We have to sit on ours and use our feet to push too…. What are we doing wrong? Would love to be able to slide it like that whilst standing outside…
Might be because you have the drawer under the seat full making it heavier?
Same with ours. Sit and slide is the only way 😅
It definitely depends on what's in the drawers. Also, lots of practice doing it without making it look difficult haha.
The clumsy bum on seat shuffle is far more elegant in my view
@@CaliforniaChris hmm… it’s been difficult to slide from day 1! We’re 2 years in now and it’s not got any easier!
Nice new intro & outro music
Thanks! It felt like it was time for a change.
Thank you very much for this great video. Was a big help for us. Greetings from Germany
I would have like to have seen the bench right to the back of the vehicle to see the maximum space from the side door. Is possible, if it was purchased, to fit a second row of seats? Can the bench seat be fitted to face the rear?
When rear seats are fully forward and shelf is removed, could you put cycles in there?
When you take out the back piece, can the bench seat go right back to the end of the rail towards the back door
?
Great video Chris, but what is in the compartment on the left below the wardrobe ?
leisure battery?
One of two leisure batteries. (The other is under the front passenger seat)
Ahh I miss the music!
Haha - onwards and upwards!
T'as le prix j'ai pas vu 🤔????
Hippies never had that kind of money for their wagons. this is becoming rich man game.
Hippies were always rich, they were middle class and living off their parent's money. Same as today Glastonbury hippies glamping in expensive yurts. The working class couldn't afford to "drop out". they had jobs to do and bills to pay.
