Just bought a T4, so, have a sub and I'll be no doubt going through every 1 of your vidz. Happy days.😊

That trick using the allen key to remove the front panel is going to save me a lot of hassle in future. Thank you!

Hi Joel, thanks for taking the time to produce your T4 videos, they've become one of my 'go to' guides as I restore my 2001 VW T4 800 special. I took my front wings off last weekend cleaned out inside and installed the drainage kit I bought from eBay, your videos were incredibly helpful. Amazingly the wheel arches and inside the wings were almost rust free even though there was a load of damp T4 special Kompost in there! One thing worth mentioning, my front wings were bonded on (pretty sure this was factory panel sealer) as well as bolted and were a complete pain to get off. I had to cut the panel bond and then pour a couple of kettles worth of boiling water between the wing and inside panel to soften the panel sealer, then pull the wing off. It doesn't look like your wings had this sealer so maybe they'd been off before. Anyway, thought that might help someone else who has to do the same job. Thanks again.

Perfect timing for the video! Working on my ‘96 T4 today and this was a big help, thanks! 👍

Really helpful, thanks mate 👍🏻

Had this on the save list for a few years now and just got round to doing it. Thanks you for the video mate, it helped very much. Good to see whats what before doing a task than going blind. 👍

Need to change my front cross member this is very helpful, 👍

Great video & very helpful thanks! 👍

Awesome! Thanks for this. I have to remove my wings to access the VW compost. Wish me luck!

Made me begin ! Well done 👍

That is a very useful Film! Thank you!!

Brilliant , I learned something else.

Nice little video. I’m hoping to find some videos on rear arch replacements as I’m hoping to tackle that on my T4 at some point 👍🏻

G'day thanks for the vid. I just did my 99 and that bloody metal tab on the grille was screwed in possibly from a prior accident fix. For this situation take the bumper off first then rhs headlight top bolts, then rhs fender as per vid to get to the screw, then grill comes out etc. I'd collected enough compost for a plant pot! If you park under any sort of conifer you need to clean them out every couple of years.

Thank you for vid, i was a little unsure if to taxkle this job but younhave made it look easish so im gunna attempt it my self cheers buddy👍👍

Thanks, helped me get mine off today. Btw seems simpler to just get the headlights right off and out the way too.

Brilliant. Thanks mate.

Great video!

Good video you've saved my wings from rusting our, I had a look behind my wings they were pretty full with dead leafes and stuff.

Hi Joel, roll on good weather A. Les

Great video👍

Nice, Good to know its just bolted on. Mines has a dent a some rot so I feel if I see a good 2nd hand one its not too bad to swap. Keep em coming Joel :)

I love the KISS principle you apply here. Shows you know what you're doing. Excellent video. I have a loose front panel on my 2001 T4 transporter and I 've been told I need some little plastic lugs that fit onto the end pieces of the panel. Do you know what they are called?

Thank you

To replace the antenna, is it necessary to do this?

The plastic bracket with the plastic clips are to be loved, just push the centre right through and the plastic bracket unclips with an easy pull. If you lose the centres a plastic golf tee does the job when replacing.

now i know why they called it in my country a nest for hamster :D

Thank you for the excellent video. On another video that I now can't find I know you fitted drain pipes from the holes just below the window screen. Where can I buy them with the little metal bits for the holes please?

Great video mate. Do you know if this is the same process for the later T4 models?

Were you wings not sealed on?

Is there any sealant between the removed wing and inner wheel arch that needs reapplying when refitting the wing?

Do you know how i can remove for thé first t4? I have not got screw....

I have a question. Doesn’t the pipes just get blocked with all the crap???

Hi JOEL just saw your video did that water drainage kit you used work, as I am going to order one. cheers. Les

Ok. But i'm my car the fender is stuck so mach that i can't remove them

you dont need to all that to remove fing just pull down sides of bumer to get to bolts

At the end when the panel is off and you're scraping out the leaves.. where is the water supposed to drain out?

I'm not sure but the plastic fixings you pulled out look a bit like the T4/caravelle interior moulding screw clips (look them up on eBay). If they are, the small hole in the middle is for an allen key, which draws out a threaded plastic bolt that has widened two tabs out to secure it. I might be wrong but will be doing this before lockdown ends, so will see. Thanks for a great video!

So I have none of the bolts shown in your video. I'm guessing that I cant take my wing off. 😫

Any wonder they rot, shite design, regards, David.
