Ive had the "Transformer" for a year and a half now, but have not posted any pics. Heres my before and after. The "Transformer" is in wonderful shape. And is well looked after. She looks forward to long road trips. Surf days and comfy sleeping arrangements. When not at the beach she can be found hauling my camera equipment around and dreaming of the Baja coast.

Enjoy!

I like the position of your number plate. Did you do that or came it with the van?

Hey fexlboi! Yeah, my Deli came with the center mounted license plate bracket. Its very beefy!. But the license plate mounting holes and the ones for the bracket didn't line up so i had to drill out my plate to make it fit. I also like where it is but had envy seeing others fitted off tho the side. I don't know where you would find one and haven't seen or noticed any others like it although Im sure they are out there . It has lights behind the plate. same as the rear plate have light behind it also. Possibly for license plates that are like white board. Very strange!

I like the driving lights you went with. What is the model and where did you get them from....and was it a simple swap or any issues in the exchange that you noted?
Mine are good - but one if brighter than the other and I sense on the "way out".....looking to change soon and like the look of your setup.
I just used black paint on my bars but plan to rhino same as my roof once I finish my step bumper upgrade!!!!!....winter project.....which means probably spring or summer by the time I get around to completing it!!!!
Cheers,

They are Hella's. Bought straight from Lordco. They weren't overly hard to install. They come with bolts and locking washers as well as nuts. I stripped down the fog lamps so that only the flat plate with the pins on either side was all that was left. I had the bumper covers off during this time after the rino coating. So i dont recall if you need remove much to to get at the bracket. Just drilled a hole in each and bolted the lamps in as low as possible. I think it really cleans up the front. The black doesnt hurt either. What lights are you running and I also am thinking about rino coating my roof. But first I have to finish sanding down the fiberglass patches I put up there and spray with rust inhibitor. Yours is not a "crystal roof" is it? Who did your coating? And how much did they charge. Oh, and does it make a difference on how hot the delis get.
