Thank you, SO MUCH!  You did an absolutely phenomenal job explaining every component - what it does, why it does it, and how it works.  I can’t express how thankful I am this eBook!

It is my go-to reference when I want to check I’ve done something correctly, and my first port of call when I invariably haven’t.

Without the foundational knowledge the guide gave us, I'm really not sure where we would have ended up. The best $25 we spent on the entire build!

I had never done anything like it before, but his step by step explanations gave me the confidence I needed.

Why should you read this guide?

It will save you money

If I could have read this book before I started, I would have saved about $390. If you are going to spend thousands on your van, a few dollars to reduce risk is worth it

It will save you time

Just finding the components that were the best fit for my build took days-worth of time.. and the thinking process took even longer.. this book is essentially a major short-cut

It will help you manage budgets

By seeing the costs (and the add-on costs) of the components and materials used in the build it will help you to work out what you need to spend for your conversion

It will give you ideas

I am a designer by background and I think I have created a few innovative ideas that you could use in your build!

It will reduce stress

By having everything explained and laid out in an order that will support you throughout your build, you will have a valuable reference point every time you get stuck or unsure.

It will save you money

This means I can update the blog, reply to questions and make this a better resource (I keep updating the eBook with more information - we are currently on Version 14 - you get free updates for life!)

Do I need an eReader to read the book?

Just so you know, I tend to update the book every 6 months so it won't be too spammy!

If I am unhappy with the eBook can I get a refund?

 
I am confident that the ebook will be useful - but if it isn't you have up to 30 days to ask for a refund.
 
Just let me know via the contact page.

Can I get a printed version?

However, you can print the PDF file if you need to - or take it to a print shop if you do not have a printer.
We prefer you learn from the screen though - nicer for the environment that way

I am from Australia - will it be good for me?

Although the guide is focused on UK and US van conversion, the vast majority of the kit is widely available in Australia.

Because of this, the book will serve you well. If you get it, and find it is not useful, then get in touch and we will refund you.
