Cruza Drivers OUTBACK EXPANDA 16.49-3 Trips and Mods
- Thread starter cruza driver

I'll let you know how it goes mate.
Another mod completed today was fitting shelves into the wardrobe. After searching through the forum about what way to tackle the job I decided to very similar to how @17triton did his. Again its one of those jobs that has been on the back burner for to long 
So another trip to Bunnings last night to collect what I needed for todays job.
3 sheets of 12mm ply, and 3 lengths of aluminium 30x30mm angle brackets. I bought an extra sheet of ply for another little job
I lined the sides for extra strength as its our pantry. If it was cloths I probably wouldn't have gone to the extra effort. That's my theory anyway
Thanks for looking :yo:

I have a gas fuse on my van. I open and run one of the stove burners for a few seconds then scream ( i mean light) the fridge.
Takes a quite a few goes but once running it stays on.
When trying with out running the stove it took for ever to start.

I do the same thing and have never had a problem lighting the fridge so I'll keep doing this too :thumb:
How many times do you pump the gas fuse @Paul ?
Neat job on the shelves mate!:encouragement: Heaps better use of space I recon.
Just a couple of times. I havent stopped to count? Normaly in a rush as its stinking hot.
Thats right mate and when we are away we always say "We need to build some shelves"
Nice work on the shelves CD..
I had gas fuses on the Panda from day 1, only ever pumped them 3 or 4 times, but usually ran the stove first if it had been used on gas for a while, but was never an issue, unfortunately the fuses went with the Panda, so I need new ones for the "THE SHAK"
Speaking of which I ran the oven and grill the other day for the first time as it says to run/burn them in so did the same with the gas for fridge, it has electronic ignition, could hear it ticking away but wouldn't light, gas tap for the fridge was off.

Looks good Cruza driver. Nice work. Looks pretty sturdy too. What is your next mod mate? Attach some lights inside?
Love the shelves @cruza driver :thumb:. Mr. W has done the same in our van but used white pre-drilled melamine sheets on the sides so we can adjust the heights of the shelves as needed. We have used our shelves to put wire basket 'draws' on. So much better use of the space than a big open hanging area.

LEDs, LEDs, fit some LEDs!!!!!!!!!!!Funny you say that, Mrs Cruza said are you putting lights in there to that could be handy
Oooooooo lights in the cupboard....Mrs W. likes this idea very much.....Mr. W. where are you? There's this other mod that would be really great.....
I wonder if milk crates turned on their side would fit ? Certainly save some effort................think I would get yelled at though.
