Building a Bulkhead | Idiot's Guide | DIY Sprinter Van Conversion UK

I was very stupid and when getting my van initially, I threw out the original shelf that was over the top of the cab. My buddy Calum kindly said he would help me make a new one, along with a bulkhead to prop it up. I decided to fully close off the cab for security and for heat saving reasons. The process was very similar to the flooring, where we fixed together a timber frame and the fixed some hardwood ply to one side. I think cut insulation board to fit in the gaps. We also managed to salvage some free carpet panels and stuck them to the shelf and the ply. If you have any questions feel free to leave a comment below.
