My Top 5 LIFE-CHANGING Camper van Upgrades that I fitted to my self build vwt4 campervan. We spend years perfecting our vans for the perfect van life experience that suits us. Everyone's van build is different from everyone else's and no two are the same, which makes self build campers so interesting and seeing what other do to there vans gives us all inspiration when we are building our own, I hope my top 5 upgrades give you some thought when building your camper van.#top5vanupgrades #vanlifeuk #urbanexplorer

I was under the impression that if you've got 2 WiFi antennas, they should be facing perpendicular to each other. The signal is sent like the ripples if you were to dip a stick into water.

I love the pop-up. I used to own a 1976 VW Camper Westphalia model. Yours is so modern, though. It's cool to see the different parts of the van. The shower is the best part.

Love your pop top roof. And that shower in the deck lid. You did an awesome job adding those! Wish mobile wifi was cheap here and actually worked well. Since we don't go all the time it's not a huge deal, but would be nice to have on some trips.

@UrbanVanlife 4 жыл бұрын

I would have thought mobile wifi would have been really cheap in the USA . I pay £25 a month for unlimited data on the wifi . And the showers great when it’s warm out lol other wise ypur freezing your ass off big time . Thanks for watching guys hope you are all safe

Awesome van. I've never seen a shower done like that, very interesting. Irritatingly, pop-tops no longer meet the DVLA requirements as of last months changes. I can not understand their logic behind that one.

@UrbanVanlife 4 жыл бұрын

dude you and me both , why can a pop top not be a camper it just baffles me cos its pure stupidity , ther just our to mess up our building lives , but if you buy one thats been converted by a company its ok to be a motorcaravan then but not self builds , totaly stupid

You have any tips for sorting rust, looking after peeling vinyl wrap ? Our T4 @Snoopy_The_T4 has loads coming through, and was debating on giving it a go at removing it myself 🙈 his wrap on top half from previous owner is peeling off as well 😕

@UrbanVanlife 4 жыл бұрын

Hey there . Ok so is it surface rust or rusty rust rust . Mind as riddled with rust . All the pics are on the web sight check them out and to see if yours is the same . Saddly there little rust collectors the T4 but I don’t think you would have any problems in doing it ypur self . Even if you have to go mad and cut stuff out . We can do any thing . But let me know how bad it is
