    Decked Out Cargo Areas

    Hi All

    After doing a few deliveries in my Caddy, I'm thinking the inside needs a little bit of protection (Blankets just aren't cutting it)... I'm not a tradie, so I'm not needing special shelves etc, just a protective skin / carpet to so I keep my Dub nice & clean

    Saw a gentleman with a Holden Combo van this morning who did quite a nice job carpeting the entire cargo area... He also added a few upgraded stereo bits ... That would be stage 2 heheheheheheheh

    Anyone got any pictures of what they've done with their cargo areas? Or any tips as to how to go about it?... Obviously, I don't want to drill into anything if I can avoid it etc.

    Cheers
    Matt

    I had this done by Vehquip at time of purchase, coupled with factory wooden floor under the rubber mat and it still looks new 2 years and 60K km's later.

    see 5th shot.

    That's exactly the sort of thing I'm looking for!

    A nice clean looking install, but still very practical for carrying around stuff

    Never heard of Vehquip? Are they in Sydney? Approx cost?

    They are in Ferntree Gully Vic, 1 minute drive from Burwin VW. Back in 2007 I was charged $1210. The rear is covered from b-pillars (rear of front doors) to tailgate. I didn't do the roof. They also manufactured the quick release individual rear bucket seat, ( single, double or triple seats if desired) which if I can be bothered means I can relocate the cargo barrier to behind the front seats. I bought a tandem caged trailer instead to carry the "dirty" stuff or when doing pick-ups and don't want the fork-lift driver to poo themself when you say, "trust me, the pallet will fit into the rear".

    Bugger!

    Does anyone know a place that does that sort of work in Sydney?

    Hoping it'll be cheaper for the Caddy considering it is a fair bit smaller

    For my first Transporter I used a local trimming company that specialied in boats and aircraft. You're bound to find many trimming companies this way.
