I told him to keep the price down, didn't want you to have a heart attack.
I would have no one to moan to at half time.

I assume for work? I bought a Vivaro a few years ago and ply lined it with a kit that had all kinds of little storage boxes as part of the kit that were prefixed to the liner. I bought it as a kit and fitted it to the van, it was bought specifically for my year/model and they clarified it all before they sent it to me and it works a treat. Obviously on the sides there isnt much you can hit with a screw as its bascially just sheets of metal with no wires etc.. I just made sure i got the screws into the metal struts along the sides which was pretty easy from recall.

Didnt line the floor, just kept it the metal so no chance of hitting anything there.

Found the storage essential in my sort of work, have lots of different small things i need to have at hand and it makes it dead easy to find a certain item, size, colour etc.. Different scews have different boxes, various clips, silicones, glues, tools, drill bits etc.. all have their own little 'home' where i can lay me grubby 'ands on em.....

Has anyone ever ‘ply lined’ a vehicle from a kit..how straightforward is it…I have this paranoia about screwing into something important
Alternatively any recommendations locally for a fitting service

TIA

Ps is it really a five minute job?

Very thoughtful of you. But, you’ve been asked, so if you’d like to say what you do, feel free. Stop short of providing a URL/ phone number/ company name, of course; but there’s no harm in saying “I’m a XXXXX’. That way, if a member needs a XXXXX they may remember you and drop you a PM.
