Project: Chevy Van G30

seats, curtain rail, dashboard cover and non-slip mats

The new seat covers are almost done. All that's missing are four buttons in the back of the passenger seat and the armrests.

First prio is: mounted seats. Beginning of June the van needs a renewal of the registration, followed by some meetings I wanted to visit and then in August we start our trip to the Nordkapp.

The armrests should be mounted during summer.

Then there was a lot of small stuff to install, but lets see for yourself:

Some pictures of the seats. The seat cover is mounted with clamps (bought at Autosattler Hüppi) to the seat base.

non-slip mats and curtain rail

The storage under the bed is mainly for all the camping furniture. For security I installed thick non-slip mats. That's also a protection against water and dirt from the baggage.

I will mount a two-color curtain to the curtain rail. It should be ivory at the living-area side to bring some brightness, and purple like the vans painting on the driver side. This looks cool from the outside and I can darken the sleeping area completely.

The curtain has a second function in addition to privacy: The temperature can be regulated much faster for the drivers area. And of course vice versa: while sleeping it keeps the cold and the heat away which comes through the windshield.
