I'm excited.
Tomorrow morning first thing I'm driving the van down to CMC in Hythe, Kent where it will be undergoing it's major transformation into part-camper. In one week I am hoping to get a new Reimo elevating roof with built in bed fitted; recarpeted throughout, new LED lights in the back of the van, wired into the leisure battery; a split relay charge fitted to charge the leisure battery whilst driving; and a mains hook up. The electrics will all be wired into the cabinet I've been building in the back.
When I booked it in I paid a deposit on the roof and carpeting. I then emailed CMC later on and followed up with a phone call with requests for the mains hook up and split replay charge work. They are very busy at the moment with a large number of conversions so they said they would try and fit the electrical work into the 4 days they have the van, but can't guarantee it. Fair enough, but I'm really hopeful it will all go in.
I've even written up a little blog entry explaining how I want it all wired in which I'm printing out and taking with me for them to refer to!
I guess if they can't get it all done next week then the van will have to go back in to get the electrical bits done at a later date - or I'll look at somewhere else nearer to home to do this work. I'm definitely keen to get a single installer to do all the electrical work in one hit so that if there are any problems I can take it back to them.
