Is there meant to be a bit of trim that covers all the wiring on the tail light from view.
Photos of your vans tray would be great!

My '75 van that i used to own didn't have any trims in that area, although someone tried to fabricate some out of margarine containers which looked as good as you can imagine.

I ended up using come split convoluted tubing to neaten up the wiring and also some some masonite trims covered in vinyl to cover them.

I am going to cover them up. Just wasn't sure if they came with a cover out of the factory. There seems to be the brackets for some.

My van (now belongs to W33VAN) had no covers there, but screw holes like it used to have them. My Traveller DOES have them. I always intended to copy the Traveller ones for the van, but never got around to it. :oops:

^^^ Standard trim in an Estate. I have a Clubman van that doesn't have trim and I doubt they ever did.

Very flash. Does your carpeting job tuck in under the window rubbers. I am currently planning to line the back and didn't know if carpet would interfere with the rubbers sealing ability.
