In this Instructable I will show you my simple campervan conversion from a race van.

Clean the Van

Before we start the conversion, it's important to remove first everything inside(seats, matting, etc) and clean the van. Disinfect it if necessary.

Measure the Floor and Wall Layout

In this step, we are going to measure the floor and wall layout for the MDF/plywood covering.

We can use carton or insulation foil in tracing the layout and transfer the form to the MDF/plywood before cutting. This MDF/plywood will be the base of our floor.

Place the MDF/plywood

Now, we will place the cut MDF/plywood to the floor and walls.

We can use super strong glue and nails/screws in attaching the MDF/plywood.

Install LED Downlights

Opps! Do not forget to install lighting on you campervan.

Secure holes for your wires and LED lights.

Floor Design

This is optional.

You can make your floor design by placing vinyl/wood tiles on top.

Note: You can skip the areas which are not exposed(e.g under the table/cupboard) to save money... and time!

Make a Bed and a Bench

This will depend on you preferences and resources.

You can choose the size and number of your bed and bench depending on your choice and need.

In my case, I chose to build a table that is light but durable and which I can put stuff under it to save more space.

Finished!
