- Leighton Vans Upgrades, Alloys and MORE for your VW Transporter Van, Campervan or Kombi
I said in my last video that the exterior of the camper van needed upgrading and here I show you how good and easy it is.
New front splitter, spoiler, lowered suspension, side bars, roof bars and alloy wheels making the outside much better.
Electric sliding doors on this really appeal to me. My spec list is getting longer.
There are also a few other upgrades included here, which I personally love.
The 20 inch Inovit wheels look great with the van lowered. It's not as low as when air ride is fitted, but it does look good.
These modifications really do make the van look better. What do you think?
I know the colour is not everyones taste, but the contrast of the bronze and gloss black is a big improvement.
Have a look at my other video where i discuss the internal camper conversion with pop top and RIB bed. The camper which is currently for sale is a great van, carry out these mods and its near perfect.
I currently have a VW T6 Transporter, however I would love a VW T6.1 and each time I drive one, it only makes that feeling stronger 😁

The @Staycation Lifestyle van conversion is coming along nicely.
I bought a VW Transporter T6 Kombi Highline van 140bhp diesel SWB with tailgate.
Slowly turning it into a camper van / day van with bed. I will also need something for cooking, cooling, sleeping, drinking ?? Choices to be made.
I have lots more to do though, I have a new electrical system, using Victron components and a Lithium LIFEPO4 battery, so I obviously need to install some power devices. I have a new sound system, with Focal speakers and ibus 2.1 amp, Playstation PS4, which will be removable, TV's on headrests.
Lots for me to look forward too and it would be nice to take you on the journey.
Please do let me know if you have any ideas or suggestions.
Vanlife for me is just beginning, it's a great adventure and I'm loving it. 😍
There are many great camper adventures to come

Interesting adaptions
Awsome looking van! Any links for the gloss black DSG gear lever please?
When you wanna be the same colour as your van.
Time to put your hand in your pocket and get yourself a t6.1 🤟
Haha, if only I had the money. I do fancy a Bayleaf Green one 😀
They are getting ever so slightly cheaper at the moment, I can't believe how much I paid for my brand new van and how much I have since spent on it .but you get what you pay for and although my van isn't to everyone's taste it suits my needs perfectly. Keep up the fantastic videos. Super informative 👌
I've seen £2.5-3k quoted for the retrofit sliding door 😲
Ouch, that’s a lot, although I think parts are not cheap. It’s better to buy them already installed
Nice van. You you have a link for the coil overs please
Great video, what model is this? a startline or highline? i have a startline but seem to struggle finding a nice font bumper
What mm springs??
